Abstract
The ability to systematically evaluate the results of automated image processing systems has been problematic. It remains so. In this work we address two issues in testing: 1) the use of incomplete and inaccurate reference data; and 2) we introduce a new, somewhat faster method of evaluating systems that recognize linear structures. We illustrate the latter using road and lines-of-communication recognition systems. We describe past work on evaluation systems and compare their strengths and weaknesses relative to the current work.
