Abstract
This paper presents a new texture segmentation technique for both supervised and unsupervised segmentation. The textured images under study are modeled by a proposed hierarchical Markov random field (MRF) model. This model is formed by combining the binomial model for textures and the multi-level logistic model for region distributions. The supervised segmentation is achieved by a new algorithm which can reach the global maxima of the posteriori distribution even if the textures are modeled by an MRF model. For unsupervised segmentation, a new parameter estimation scheme is proposed to estimate the model parameters directly from a given image. The new technique is verified by a variety of textured images, such as synthesized textures, natural textures and aerial images, in both supervised and unsupervised segmentation cases.
