چکیده

Image texture is useful in image browsing, search and retrieval. A texture descriptor based on a multiresolution decomposition using Gabor wavelets is proposed. The descriptor consists of two parts: a perceptual browsing component (PBC) and a similarity retrieval component (SRC). The extraction methods of both PBC and SRC are based on a multiresolution decomposition using Gabor wavelets. PBC provides a quantitative characterization of the texture's structuredness and directionality for browsing application, and the SRC characterizes the distribution of texture energy in di!erent subbands, and supports similarity retrieval. This representation is quite robust to illumination variations and compares favorably with other texture descriptors for similarity retrieval. Experimental results are provided.

An efficient computation method for the texture browsing descriptor of MPEG-7

In this paper, an efficient computation method for computing the texture browsing descriptor of MPEG-7 is provided. Texture browsing descriptor is used to characterize a texture’s regularity, directionality and coarseness. To compute the regularity of textures, Fourier transform is first performed. To get more discriminative features for regularity computation, the Fourier spectrum is treated a...

Texture Descriptors in MPEG-7

We present three descriptors of texture feature of a region. Namely, the homogeneous texture descriptor (HTD), the edge histogram descriptor (EHD), and the perceptual browsing descriptor (PBD). They are currently included in the Committee Draft of the MPEG-7 Visual (ISO/IEC 15938-3). Each descriptor has a unique functionality and application domain. HTD and EHD describe statistical distribution...

Color and texture descriptors

This paper presents an overview of color and texture descriptors that have been approved for the Final Committee Draft of the MPEG-7 standard. The color and texture descriptors that are described in this paper have undergone extensive evaluation and development during the past two years. Evaluation criteria include effectiveness of the descriptors in similarity retrieval, as well as extraction,...

Evaluation and comparison of texture descriptors proposed in MPEG-7

Texture description contributes as one of the most important low-level features in content-based image retrieval. In MPEG-7, homogeneous texture descriptor (HTD), texture browsing descriptor (TBD), and edge histogram descriptor (EHD) have been proposed as texture descriptors. However, no comprehensive evaluation and comparison of these three descriptors have been made. In this paper, we propose...

Low-dimensional and comprehensive color texture description

Image retrieval can be dealt by combining standard descriptors, such as those of MPEG-7, which are defined independently for each visual cue (e.g. SCD or CLD for Color, HTD for texture or EHD for edges). A common problem is to combine similarities coming from descriptors representing different concepts in different spaces. In this paper we propose a color texture description that bypasses this ...
