Texture analysis: an adaptive probabilistic approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two main issues arise when working in the area of texture segmentation: the need to describe the texture accurately by capturing its underlying structure, and the need to perform analyses on the boundaries of textures. Herein, we tackle these problems within a consistent probabilistic framework. Starting from a probability distribution on the space of infinite images, we generate a distribution on arbitrary finite regions by marginalization. For a Gaussian distribution, the computational requirement of diagonalization and the modelling requirement of adaptivity together lead naturally to adaptive wavelet packet models that capture the ‘significant amplitude features’ in the Fourier domain. Undecimated versions of the wavelet packet transform are used to diagonalize the Gaussian distribution efficiently, albeit approximately. We describe the implementation and application of this approach and present results obtained on several Brodatz texture mosaics.

Probabilistic Estimation of Local Scale
We present a novel probabilistic approach for local scale selection. The proposed method computes a probability measure on scale space, which is based on Bayesian estimation theory, and it leads to an eecient computational implementation. At each scale we associate a decomposition likelihood, one for the smoothed image and other for the residual. The scale selection method, based on the minimal...

In this paper, we prove the Hyers-Ulam stability in$beta$-homogeneous probabilistic modular spaces via fixed point method for the functional equation[f(x+ky)+f(x-ky)=f(x+y)+f(x-y)+frac{2(k+1)}{k}f(ky)-2(k+1)f(y)]for fixed integers $k$ with $kneq 0,pm1.$
متن کاملAdaptive texture and color segmentation for tracking moving objects
Color segmentation is a very popular technique for real-time object tracking. However, even with adaptive color segmentation schemes, under varying environmental conditions in video sequences, the tracking tends to be unreliable. To overcome this problem, many multiple cue fusion techniques have been suggested. One of the cues that complements color nicely, is texture. However, texture segmenta...
متن کاملAdaptive image segmentation based on color and texture
We propose an image segmentation algorithm that is based on spatially adaptive color and texture features. The features are first developed independently, and then combined to obtain an overall segmentation. Texture feature estimation requires a finite neighborhood which limits the spatial resolution of texture segmentation, while color segmentation provides accurate and precise edge localizati...
