Departures from a regular texture pattern can happen in many di erent dimensions. Previous related work has focused on faithful texture synthesis for near-regular texture departing along the color and intensity axes while the underlying geometric regularity is well preserved. In this paper, we address the issue of faithful texture synthesis for textures that have both the structural and color/i...

A new approach to colour-texture segmentation is presented which uses Local Binary Pattern data and a new colour quantisation scheme based on hue and saturation to provide evidence from which pixels can be classified into texture classes. The proposed algorithm, which we contend to be the first use of evidence gathering in the field of texture classification, uses Generalised Hough Transform st...

Texture is a surface property which is used to identify and recognize the object. Texture analysis is important in many applications of computer image analysis for classification and segmentation of images based on local spatial patterns of intensity or color. In texture classification the goal is to assign an unknown sample image to one set of known texture classes. The proposed method is text...

Texture synthesis techniques require nearly uniform texture samples, however identifying suitable texture samples in an image requires significant data preprocessing. To eliminate this work, we introduce a fully automatic pipeline to detect dominant texture samples based on a manifold generated using the diffusion distance. We define the characteristics of dominant texture and three different t...

Neural coding for texture features of visual objects was investigated in monkey inferior temporal cortex by inactivating intrinsic GABAergic inhibition. The inactivation enabled a substantial number of cells to respond to originally ineffective texture pattern that had a particular feature distinct from the originally effective pattern, or to ineffective texture and non-texture stimuli that pos...

Residential areas show plenty of texture information on high resolution remotely sensed imagery. Appropriate description about this texture information for discriminating residential class and its background is a key problem for improving the classification results. Method for selecting proper texture parameters is presented in this paper. Based on the analysis of residential texture, grey leve...

Projective texture mapping is used to project a texture map onto scene geometry. It has been used in many applications, since it eliminates the assignment of fixed texture coordinates and provides a good method of representing synthetic images or photographs in image-based rendering. But conventional projective texture mapping has limitations in the field of view and the degree of navigation be...

computer graphics, transformations, texture mapping In a 3D graphics application, a common operation is the binding of a 2D texture onto a triangle in a 3D positional space. For light-dependent or view-dependent texture mapping, a need may arise in the graphics pipeline to transform the light or view direction vector into texture space. The affine transformation is unique within the plane of th...

Color texture classification is an important step in image segmentation and recognition. The color information is especially important in textures of natural scenes. In this paper, we propose a novel approach based on the 2D and semi 3D texture feature coding method (TFCM) for color texture classification. While 2D TFCM features are extracted on gray scale converted color texture images, the se...

Most Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems employ color as primary feature with texture and shape as secondary features. Very few systems exploit spatial features. None of the available systems combines all three visual features, texture, shape and location, for organization and retrieval. Moreover relatively few systems use Gabor filters in texture extraction, despite the widely acclaim...
