Data Fusion And Image Segmentation Using Hierarchical Simulated Annealing On The Connection Machine(Tm)
Bradley P. Kjell, Peiqi Wang · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1989
We present a family of algorithms for low level data fusion and image segmentation using hierarchical layers of processor grids. Previously, image pyramids and simulated annealing have separately been used for these problems. We investigate combining these methods into pyramidal annealing algorithms.
