{"type":"ScholarlyArticle","title":"Line Labeling and Junction Labeling: A Coupled System for Image Interpretation","authors":[{"name":"Terry Regier","slug":"terry-regier","given":"Terry","family":"Regier","affiliation":""}],"abstract":"The task of obtaining a line labeling from a greyscale image of trihedral objects presents difficulties not found in the classical line labeling problem. As originally formulated, the line labeling problem assumed that each junction was correctly pre-classified as being of a particular junction type (e.g. T, Y, arrow); the success of the algorithms proposed have depended critically upon getting this initial junction classification correct. In real images, however, junctions of different types may actually look quite similar, and this pre-classification is often difficult to achieve. This issue is addressed by recasting the line labeling problem in terms of a coupled probabilistic system which labels both lines and junctions. This results in a robust system, in which prior knowledge of acceptable configurations can serve to overcome the problem of misleading or ambiguous evidence.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/192","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/0192.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/192.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/bibtex/192","volume":{"slug":"1991","title":"Proceedings of the Twelfth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1991","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/","year":1991,"location":"Sydney, New South Wales, Australia","dates":"24-30 August 1991","editors":"John Mylopoulos and Ray Reiter","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Vision","track":"Vision","number":192,"pages":{"first":1305,"last":1309},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
