# Probabilistic Information Fusion for Multi-Modal Image Segmentation

Paul B. Chou, Christopher M. Brown

*Proceedings of the Tenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence*, pages 779-781.

## Abstract

Observable evidence from disparate sources are combined coherently and consistently through a hierarchically structured knowledge tree. Prior knowledge of spatial interactions is modeled with Markov Random Fields. A posteriori probabilities of segmentations are maintained incrementally. This paper ia a shortened version of [Chou and Brown 87), which contains many more references.
