Windowpane Detection based on Maximum Aposteriori Probability Labeling
Jan Čech, Radim ára
Segmentation of windowpanes is formulated as a task of maximum
aposteriori labeling. Assuming orthographic rectification of the
building facade, the windowpanes are always axis-parallel rectangles
of relatively low variability in appearance. Every image pixel has one
of 10 possible labels, and the adjacent pixels are interconnected via
links which defines allowed label configuration, such that the labels
are forced to form a set of non-overlapping rectangles. The task of
finding the most probable labeling of a given image leads to NP-hard
discrete optimization problem. However, we find an approximate solution
using a general solver suitable for such problems and we obtain
promising results which we demonstrate on several experiments.
Substantial difference between the presented paper and state-of-the-art papers on segmentation based on Markov Random Fields is
that we have a strong structure model, forcing the labels to form
rectangles, while other methods does not model the structure at all,
they typically only have a penalty when adjacent labels are different,
in order to make resulting patches more continuous to reduce influence
of noise and prevent over-segmentation.
