For the purpose of face recognition (FR), the new color local texture features, i.e., color local Gabor wavelets (CLGWs) and color local binary pattern (CLBP), are being proposed. The proposed color local texture features are able to exploit the discriminative information derived from spatiochromatic texture patterns of different spectral channels within a certain local face region. This method...

While an exact definition of texture is somewhat elusive, texture can be qualitatively described as a distribution of color, albedo or local normal on a surface. In the literature, the word texture is often used to describe a color or albedo variation on a smooth surface. We refer to such texture as 2D texture. In real world scenes, texture is often due to surface height variations and can be t...

Digital image processing techniques are useful in abnormality detection in mammogram images. Recently, texture based image segmentation of mammogram images has become popular due to its better precision and accuracy. Local Binary Pattern has been a recently proposed texture descriptor which attracted the research community rigorously towards texture based analysis of digital images. Many textur...

This article presents a new adaptive framework for locally parallel texture modeling. Oscillating patterns are modeled with functionals that constrain the local Fourier decomposition of the texture. We first introduce a texture functional which is a weighted Hilbert norm. The weights on the local Fourier atoms are optimized to match the local orientation and frequency of the texture. This adapt...

This paper presents a novel approach for visual scene representation, combining the use of quantized color and texture local invariant features (referred to here as visterms) computed over interest point regions. In particular we investigate the different ways to fuse together local information from texture and color in order to provide a better visterm representation. We develop and test our m...

The proposal of this study is to analyze the texture pattern recognition over the local jet space looking forward to improve the texture characterization. Local jets decompose the image based on partial derivatives allowing the texture feature extraction be exploited in different levels of geometrical structures. Each local jet component evidences a different local pattern, such as, flat region...

-Texture classification is a major issue in image analysis and pattern recognition. A number of methods are proposed in the literature including Local Binary Pattern (LBP). The LBP variant (s) plays an active role to extract texture features for texture classification. These are rotation invariant, noise sensitive or noise insensitive mehods. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages...

The locality and edges of texture image may be ignored by the Haar local binary pattern texture features owing to strong subjectivity and poor ability to self-adaptive to the artificial setting judgment threshold. Therefore, from the perspective of Human Vision System (HVS), the new Haar local binary pattern texture feature extraction algorithm (HLBP_HVS) is proposed. The local and global struc...
