A Co-occurrence texture semi-invariance to direction, distance and patient size
نویسندگان
چکیده
Texture-based models are intensively used in medical image processing to quantify the homogeneity and consistency of soft tissues across different patients. Several research studies have shown that the co-occurrence texture model and its Haralick descriptors can be successfully applied to capture the statistical properties of the soft tissues’ patterns. Given that the calculation of the co-occurrence texture model is a computationally-intensive task, in this paper we investigate the usefulness of using all possible angles and all displacements for capturing the texture properties of an organ of interest, specifically, the liver. Based on the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) technique and multiple pair-wise comparisons, we found that using only the “near” and “far” displacements is enough to capture the spatial properties of the texture for the liver.

Co-occurrence Matrix Invariance to Patient Size in Computed Tomography
The main objective of the proposed research is to evaluate the invariance of the cooccurrence texture model with respect to patient size in Computed Tomography (CT) data. Since patients’ scans can have high variation in pixel spacing, in order to standardize all patients’ texture descriptors, we investigate the effect of four interpolation techniques in reducing the pixel spacing variance: near...
متن کاملTexture Feature Extraction for Land-cover Classification of Remote Sensing Data in Land Consolidation District Using Semi-variogram
The area of land consolidation projects are generally small, so remote sensing images used in land cover classification are generally of high resolution. The spectral characteristics of the high-resolution remote sensing data are unstable, while the texture feature is prominent. In view of this issue, this paper study the spatial relation between the adjacent pixels in the remote sensing image,...
متن کاملOn Scale Invariance Texture Image Retrieval using Fuzzy Logic and Wavelet Co-occurrence based Features
In this paper, analysis of the feature selection for scale invariance texture image retrieval using fuzzy logic classifier and wavelet and co-occurrence matrix based feature is carried out. Two types of texture features are extracted one using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and other using Cooccurrence matrix. Energy and Standard Deviation are obtained from each sub-band of DWT coefficients u...
متن کاملContent Based Image Retrieval Scheme using Color, Texture and Shape Features
A novel approach of Content Based Image Retrieval(CBIR), which combines color, texture and shape descriptors to represent the features of the image, is discussed in this paper. The proposed scheme is based on three noticeable algorithms: color distribution entropy(CDE), color level co-occurrence(CLCM) and invariant moments. CDE takes the correlation of the color spatial distribution in an image...
متن کاملTexture analysis continues to evolve as a feature measurement t
Texture analysis and classification of soft tissues in Computed Tomography (CT) images recently advanced with a new approach that disambiguates the checkboard problem where two distinctly different patterns produce identical co-occurrence matrices, but this method quadruples the size of the feature space. The feature space size problem is exacerbated by the use of varying sized texture operator...
