  • Abstract
    Probabilistic relaxation labeling processes are iterative parallel schemes that use contextual information to reduce local ambiguities. The behavior of these processes can be described by examining the rates of change and entropies of the probability vectors at each iteration. Examples are given comparing three relaxation processes as applied to several basic image analysis tasks.
