Abstract :
Pixel force field (PFF) is a novel image representation where at each pixel a two-dimensional vector is defined for representing interaction of pixels. The vector is oriented to the center of the region composed of pixels having the same qualitative property, such as color and gray-scale level. Using the pixel force field and improved live-wire segmentation technique the task of interactive road extraction from remote sensing images is solved
