  • Abstract
    In this paper, we present an alternate approach to estimate the parameters of a Markov random field (MRF) model for images using the concepts of homotopy continuation method. We also develop a joint parameter estimation and image restoration scheme where we have used a fairly general model involving the line fields and tested on a real image. Simulation results using gray level images are presented
