Abstract :
Traditionally, Markov random field (MRF) models have been used in low-level image analysis. The article presents an MRF-based scheme to perform object delineation. The proposed edge-based approach involves extracting straight lines from the edge map of an image. Then, an MRF model is used to group these lines to delineate buildings in aerial images
