چکیده

This chapter presents a novel and generic framework for image segmentation using a compound image descriptor that encompasses both colour and texture information in an adaptive fashion. The developed image segmentation method extracts the texture information using low-level image descriptors (such as the Local Binary Patterns (LBP)) and colour information by using colour space partitioning. The main advantage of this approach is the analysis of the textured images at a micro-level using the local distribution of the LBP values, and in the colour domain by analysing the local colour distribution obtained after colour segmentation. The use of the colour and texture information separately has proven to be inappropriate for natural images as they are generally heterogeneous with respect to colour and texture characteristics. Thus, the main problem is to use the colour and texture information in a joint descriptor that can adapt to the local properties of the image under analysis. We will review existing approaches to colour and texture analysis as well as illustrating how our approach can be successfully applied to a range of applications including the segmentation of natural images, medical imaging and product inspection.

Effects of stock density on texture-colour quality and chemical composition of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

This study describes the effects of different stocking densities on texture/colour characteristics, protein content /amino acid and lipid content/fatty acid composition of rainbow trout fillet. Stocking density was selected 5 (Group A), 15 (Group B), 25 (Group C) kg fish m−3. Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test showed insignificant differences between measured size/weight measurement and condition f...

Quaternion Colour Texture

The quaternion representation of colour is shown to be effective in the context of colour texture region segmentation in digital colour images. The advantage of using quaternion arithmetic is that a colour can be represented and analyzed as a single entity. A basis for the colour textures occurring in a given image is derived via quaternion principal component analysis of a training set of colo...

Experimentation on the Use of Chromaticity Features, Local Binary Pattern, and Discrete Cosine Transform in Colour Texture Analysis

This paper describes a method for colour texture analysis, which performs segmentation based on colour and texture information. The main goal of this approach is to examine the contribution of chromaticity features in the analysis of texture. Local binary pattern and discrete cosine transform are the techniques utilised as a tool to perform feature extraction. Segmentation is carried out based ...
