Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of fast, unsupervised road network extraction from remotely sensed images. We develop an approach that employs a fixed-grid, localized Radon transform to extract a redundant set of line segment candidates. The road network structure is then extracted by introducing interactions between neighbouring segments in addition to a data-fit term, based on the Bhattacharyya distance. The final configuration is obtained using simulated annealing via a Markov chain Monte Carlo iterative procedure. The experiments demonstrate a fast and accurate road network extraction on high resolution optical images of semi- urbanized zones, which is further supported by comparisons with several benchmark techniques.
