Segmentation of remote sensing images is challenging task not only for the intrinsic complexity of imaged scenes but also for their multiple-scale interpretation. Hierarchical techniques, which provide a sequence of nested segmentation maps for the scene at different scales are therefore very promising. The Texture fragmentation and reconstruction technique (TFR) carries out a hierarchical image segmentation based mainly on textural image properties. In this work we consider its improved version, Recursive-TFR, based on recursive binary segmentation, assess its performance experimentally on a suitable segmentation benchmark, prove its potential for remore-sensing imagery and point out promising developments.
