Color Texture Segmentation by Decomposition of Gaussian Mixture Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently we have proposed Gaussian mixtures as a local statistical model to synthesize artificial textures. We describe the statistical dependence of pixels of a movable window by multivariate Gaussian mixture of product components. The mixture components correspond to different variants of image patches as they appear in the window. In this sense they can be used to identify different segments of the source color texture image. The segmentation can be obtained by means of Bayes formula provided that a proper decomposition of the estimated Gaussian mixture into sub-mixtures is available. In this paper the mixture model is decomposed by maximizing the mean probability of correct classification of pixels into segments in a way taking into account the assumed consistency of final segmentation.

متن کاملSelf-organized Clustering of Mixture Models for Combined Color And Texture Segmentation
The segmentation of images based on color and texture cues is formulated as a clustering problem in the joint color and texture space. Small image patches are grouped together on the basis of local color and spatial frequency statistics which is captured by Gaussian mixture models in feature space. The locality of segments in feature space is taken into account by the topological organization o...

We developed a new semi-supervised EM-like algorithm that is given the set of objects present in eachtraining image, but does not know which regions correspond to which objects. We have tested thealgorithm on a dataset of 860 hand-labeled color images using only color and texture features, and theresults show that our EM variant is able to break the symmetry in the initial solution. We compared...
