Abstract: A novel method is presented to detect roads in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images. A multi-segmented poly-line model is introduced to provide a more accurate description of the road as well as to ensure the road curve's smoothness in the model level. We then solve the road detection problem using the Bayesian tracking theory, where the Particle Filtering algorithm is adopted to provide a simple and consistent framework. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method is demonstrated by experimental results.
