This study proposes a new method to detect road junctions from existing road masks obtained from geospatial databases. Moreover, this method can be used to extract junction points from the road masks generated by automatic or semiautomatic road extraction algorithms. The algorithm is intended to lower the false detection rate by refining the input road mask. Vector space analysis of the pruned road skeleton provides a simple yet robust detection and classification strategy. Empirical results demonstrate the success of the proposed junction extraction model.

Building Detection in satellite images by textural features and Adaboost CETIN, MELIH; Halıcı, Uğur (2010-08-24) A method based on textural features and Adaboost for detecting buildings in satellite images is proposed. Several local textural features including mean and standard deviation of image intensity and gradient, Zernike moments, Circular-Mellin features, Haralick features, Fourier Power Spectrum, Wavelets, Gabor Filters, and a set features extracted from HSV color space are extracted. Adaboost learning algorithm is employed for both classification and determining the beneficial feature subset, due to its featu...
Tubularity Tracking Based Automatic Road Detection from Sattelite Images Gürbüz, Yeti Ziya; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (2014-04-25) In this paper, a novel approach based on tubularity tracking and graph cuts for road detection from satellites images is presented. The most important feature of the proposed method is its local peak detection filter. Unlike the tubularity based road or road like curvilinear structure detection methods presented in the literature, proposed method samples local peaks from tubularity image by tracking the peak points based on Bayesian filtering in order to construct graphs and introduces no significant comput...
Road network extraction from high-resolution multi spectral satellite images Karaman, Ersin; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Information Systems (2012) In this thesis, an automatic road extraction algorithm for multi-spectral images is developed. The developed model extracts elongated structures from images by using edge detection, segmentation and clustering techniques. The study also extracts non-road regions like vegetative fields, bare soils and water bodies to obtain more accurate road map. The model is constructed in a modular approach that aims to extract roads with different characteristics. Each module output is combined to create a road score map...
A new algorithm for automatic road network extraction in multispectral satellite images Karaman, Ersin; Çınar, Umut; Gedik, Ekin; Çetin, Yasemin; Halıcı, Uğur (2012-05-09) The aim of this study is to develop automatic road extraction algorithm in satellite images. As roads have different width and surface material characteristics in urban and rural areas, a modular approach for road extraction algorithm is desired. In this study, edge detection, segmentation, clustering and vegetation and land cover analyses are used. In order to combine the results of different methods, a score map based on segmentation analysis is constructed. Quantitative and visual results show that this ...
Fourier Based Feature Descriptors for Railroad Extraction from Aerial Images KARAMAN, ERSİN; Cinar, UMUT; GEDİK, Ekin; ÇETİN, YASEMİN; Halıcı, Uğur (2012-12-27) The aim of this study is to automatically differentiate railroads from roads obtained by a general road extraction algorithm. In high resolution aerial images, the sleepers between railroad tracks depict a distinctive texture from other elongated objects. By employing this additional cue, a new Fourier based feature descriptor is developed to distinguish railroad objects in aerial images. After local Fourier features calculation, the periodic railroad texture is locally detected in the frequency domain.
