Title
An estimation-theoretic approach to terrain image segmentation
Abstract
A method for modeling images of natural terrain is developed and applied to the segmentation of aerial photographic data. An underlying stochastic structure based on linear filtering concepts provides a means of modeling the terrain in local areas of the image. Superimposed on this is a Markov random field that describes transitions from regions of one terrain type to another. Maximum likelihood and maximum a posteriori estimation are applied to estimate regions of similar terrain. Results of application to digitized aerial photographs are presented and discussed.
