Abstract
Road extraction plays an important role in many applications such as traffic monitoring. In order to speed the extraction and enhance its precision, an approach based on particle filtering is proposed in this paper. Firstly, an improved line detector is presented to extract road candidates, which makes use of the road characteristic on SAR images. Then particle filtering based on Monte Carlo theory is applied to group the candidates. Applied results show that the road extraction method is effective and the road features on SAR images have been extracted accurately. Moreover, the method can be realized simply and save the amount of calculation.
