Texture Classification by Combining Local Binary Pattern Features and a Self-Organizing Map
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the combined use of Local Binary Pattern (LBP) features and a Self-Organizing Map (SOM) in texture classification. With this approach, the unsupervised learning and visualization capabilities of a SOM are utilized with highly efficient histogram-based texture features. In addition to the Euclidean distance normally used with a SOM, an information theoretic log-likelihood (cumlog) dissimilarity measure is also used for determining distances between feature histograms. The performance of the approach is empirically evaluated with two different data sets: (1) a texture-based visual inspection problem containing four very similar paper classes, and (2) classification of 24 different natural textures from the Outex database.

Visual Training and Classification of Textured Scene Images
Classification of textures in scene images is very difficult due to the high variability of the data within and between images caused by effects such as non-homogeneity of the textures, changes in illumination, shadows, foreshortening and self-occlusion. For these reasons, finding proper features and representative training samples for a classifier is very problematic. Even defining the classes...

In this paper we describe a novel noise-robust texture classification method using joint multiscale local binary pattern. The first step in texture classification is to describe the texture by extracting different features. So far, several methods have been developed for this topic, one of the most popular ones is Local Binary Pattern (LBP) method and its variants such as Completed Local Binary...
متن کاملReal-time surface inspection by texture
In this paper a real-time surface inspection method based on texture features is introduced. The proposed approach is based on the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) texture operator and the Self-Organizing Map (SOM). A very fast software implementation of the LBP operator is presented. The SOM is used as a powerful classifier and visualizer. The efficiency of the method is empirically evaluated in two...

متن کاملSurface Defect Detection with Histogram - Based
In this paper the performance of two histogram-based texture analysis techniques for surface defect detection is evaluated. These techniques are the co-occurrence matrix method and the local binary pattern method. Both methods yield a set of texture features that are computed from a small image window. The unsupervised segmentation procedure is used in the experiments. It is based on the statis...
