In statistical model based texture feature extraction, features based on spatially varying parameters achieve higher discriminative performances compared to spatially constant parameters. In this paper we formulate a novel Bayesian framework which achieves texture characterization by spatially varying parameters based on Gaussian Markov random fields. The parameter estimation is carried out by ...

In computer vision, measurement of image properties such as color or texture is essential. In this paper, we propose a solid framework for the local measurement of texture in color images. We give a physical basis for the integration of the well-known Gabor filters with the measurement of color. Our method implies that the color–texture is measured in the wavelength-Fourier domain. The measurem...

This paper looks at the nonparametric, multiscale, Markov Random Field (MRF) model and its application in classifying the MeasTex Test Suite. The MeasTex Test Suite is a standard by which various texture classification algorithms can be compared. Typically, todays texture classification algorithms have been based on supervised classification, whereby all the classification classes have been pre...

Visual clues as to the physical substance of manufactured objects can be misleading. For example, a plastic ring can appear to be made of gold. However, we can avoid misidentifying an object׳s substance by comparing visual and tactile information. As compared to the spatial properties of an object (e.g., orientation), however, little information regarding physical object properties (material pr...

abstract in this study the possibility of utilizing date syrup as a sugar replacer in soft ice-cream was investigated. for this purpose control sample was formulated based on iranian ice- cream standard. data syrup which produced from third grade kabkab dates, replaced sucrose in four levels (25, 50, 75 and 100%). physical properties including overrun, viscosity and freezing point (drawing temp...

A perspective view of a slanted textured surface shows systematic changes in the density, area, and aspect-ratio of texture elements. These apparent changes in texture element properties can be analyzed to recover information about the physical layout of the scene. However, in practice it is difficult to identify texture elements, especially in images where the texture elements are partially oc...

Electrical steels are important alloys widely used in electrical instruments. The magnetic properties and low core loss of grain oriented silicon steels are closely related to the sharpness of Goss texture ({110} ).The direction of is the softest direction for magnetism.  In this work, the microstructure and dependence of orientation density along the major texture fibers on the applied cold ro...

Electrical steels are undoubtedly the most important soft magnetic materials in use today. Applications vary in quantities from the few ounces used in small relays or pulse transformers to tons used in generators, motors, and transformers. There are two principal types of electrical steels: grain oriented and non-oriented steels. The grain oriented (GO) electrotechnical steel sheets are widely ...

Texture analysis is quite important operation in medical image processing. Wavelet based texture analysis is developed which gives better way of extracting inherent object and properties in medical image. It gives a robust technique in disease diagnosis and future of biophysical disorder ness in a body. Image processing has an important influence on the medical decision making process and even ...

Inulin is a polyfructans which is widely used as prebiotic, sugar replacer, fat replacer and texture modifier. It is a significant ingredient used in food industry by virtue of its diversified nutritional and functional properties. Inulin, cellulose, starch, pectin, carrageenan and xanthan gum are of great attention because of their nutritional and tecchnological properties. The inulin concentr...
