چکیده
ABSTARCTFractal theory is used in image processing. The dimension of complex objects in nature is calculated by Fractal Dimension. Fractal Dimension is used in shape classification, graphic analysis in many fields, texture segmentation. FD‟s can be used to aid in several data mining tasks. Mainly box counting method is used to calculate the FD of an image. In this paper various methods used to calculate the FD of gray scale images are emphasized. Key problems involved in the computation of Differential box count method is presented. Experiments are conducted using the methods and FD is compared.

The Fractal Dimension (FD) of an image defines the roughness using a real number which is highly associated with the human perception of surface roughness. It has been applied successfully for many computer vision applications such as texture analysis, segmentation and classification. Several techniques can be found in literature to estimate FD. One such technique is Differential Box Counting (...
متن کاملScale-Specific Multifractal Medical Image Analysis
Fractal geometry has been applied widely in the analysis of medical images to characterize the irregular complex tissue structures that do not lend themselves to straightforward analysis with traditional Euclidean geometry. In this study, we treat the nonfractal behaviour of medical images over large-scale ranges by considering their box-counting fractal dimension as a scale-dependent parameter...
