Discrimination of Surface Textures
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper investigates the use of fractal metrics for discrimination of copper surface textures. Measurements of copper surfaces, using contacting profilometry, provided the raw data for the fractal analysis. The samples tested included copper foil samples and a copper lead frame, typical of those in use in plastic electronic packages. The fractal Hausdorf dimension and upper/lower ranges of fractal scale are analyzed by the coastline method and compared using Bonferroni multiple confidence limits. Metrics show significant differences between sample couplets, indicating significant precision in the fractal approach to adequately quantify surface texture qualities.

Human discrimination of surface slant in fractal and related textured images.
Slant-discrimination thresholds were measured for textures with the property that their power spectra, when log transformed, are inversely proportional to log spatial frequency: P(f) alpha f-beta. As the exponent beta changes from high values to low values, the slope of the power spectrum of the image decreases. As the parameter passes through values in the fractal range the resulting texture c...
متن کاملDynamic translation of surface coarseness into whisker vibrations.
Rodents in their natural environment use their whiskers to distinguish between surfaces having subtly different textures and shapes. They do so by actively sweeping their whiskers across surfaces in a rhythmic motion. To determine how textures are transformed into vibration signals in whiskers and how these vibrations are expressed in neuronal discharges, we induced active whisking in anestheti...
متن کاملThe three dimensions of human visual sensitivity to first-order contrast statistics
This work studies the preattentive discrimination of achromatic textures composed of mixtures of different (Weber) contrasts. These textures differ not at all in local spatial structure, but only in the relative proportions of different contrasts they comprise. It is shown that, like chromatic discrimination, preattentive discrimination of such textures is three-dimensional. The current results...
متن کاملBeyond fourth-order texture discrimination: generation of extreme-order and statistically-balanced textures
Julesz introduced the concept of statistically defined textures and their perceptual discrimination. Julesz showed that discrimination was possible with statistics equated to third-order, specifying fourth-order textures. Klein and Tyler offered a variety of paradigms suggesting that fourth order might be the limit on human texture processing. To go beyond this limit, new texture paradigms are ...
متن کاملPerception of surface slant from oriented textures.
When a surface covered with a regular texture is viewed in perspective, the projected texture provides a number of cues to 3D surface orientation. For oriented textures, one cue is perspective convergence: symmetry lines that are parallel along the surface project to lines that vary systematically in orientation. We investigated the contribution of perspective convergence to perception of 3D sl...
