Abstract :
Image interpretation involves giving meaning to an image by identifying significant objects in the image and also inferring their semantic relationship. In this correspondence we propose the use of hidden Markov models to construct the clique functions of the MRF model used for interpretation. We show how HMMs can be used to represent the features of the given image and also the domain knowledge
