Difficulty making active contours work

[Stéfan van der Walt]

Hi everyone

(And especially Emmanuelle)

There was a recent StackOverflow question that I think can be addressed
well by active contours:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37234413/background-removal-masking-in-python-using-edge-detection-and-scikit-image

I've tried to make our implementation work on these images, but to no
avail.  Do you have any advice?  My attempt is here:

https://gist.github.com/e4313a0ecefb5ff37106b862e6cf25f5

(Note that I added a callback into the active contours loop:

        if callback is not None:
            callback(np.array([x, y]).T)

Perhaps this would be a useful addition in general?)

Thanks!
Stéfan
