Abstract

We present a novel approach to segment and classify objects in images into two classes. A binary conditional random field (CRF) framework is augmented with an unsupervised clustering step learning contextual relations of objects, the so-called implicit scene context (ISC). Several experiments with simulated data, images from benchmark data sets, and aerial images of an urban area show improved results compared to a standard CRF.
