Comparative study between 2D and 3D Local Binary Patter (LBP) methods for extraction from Computed Tomography (CT) imagery data in lung cancer diagnosis is conducted. The lung image classification is performed using probabilistic neural network (PNN) with histogram similarity as distance measure. The technique is evaluated on a set of CT lung images from Japan Society of Computer Aided Diagnosi...

This paper presents a new method for improving face recognition performance under difficult conditions. Specifically, a new image representation scheme is proposed which is derived from the YCrQ colour space using principal component analysis (PCA) followed by Fisher linear discriminant analysis (FLDA). A multi-scale local feature, LBP-DWT, is used for face representation which is computed by e...

We present a novel image feature descriptor for rotationally invariant 2D texture classification. This extends our previous work on noise-resistant and intensity-shift invariant median binary patterns (MBPs), which use binary pattern vectors based on adaptive median thresholding. In this paper the MBPs are hashed to a binary chain or equivalence class using a circular bit-shift operator. One bi...

In this paper we evaluate several extensions of Local Binary Patterns to color images. In particular, we investigate their robustness with respect to changes in the illuminant color temperature. To do so, we recovered the spectral reflectances of 1360 texture images from the Outex 13 data set. Then, we rendered the images as if they were taken under 33 different illuminants. For each combinatio...

In this paper, we propose Local Binary Pattern Histogram Fourier features (LBP-HF), a novel rotation invariant image descriptor computed from discrete Fourier transforms of local binary pattern (LBP) histograms. Unlike most other histogram based invariant texture descriptors which normalize rotation locally, the proposed invariants are constructed globally for the whole region to be described. ...

Local Binary Pattern (LBP) is a very efficient local descriptor for describing image texture. In this paper, we propose a novel face recognition technique based on wavelet transform and the least square estimator to enhance the classical LBP. First, Wavelet transform is used to decompose a given image into four kinds of frequency images from which the features of that image can be extracted. Th...

This paper presents a new image indexing and retrieval algorithm by considering the magnitudes of the local derivative patterns (LDPs). LDP extract the high-order local information by encoding various distinctive spatial relationships contained in a given local region. Two experiments have been carried out for proving the worth of our algorithm. It is further mentioned that the database conside...

In this paper a new approach for moving objects detection in video surveillance systems is proposed. It is based on iLBP (intensity local binary patterns) descriptor that combines the classic LBP (local binary patterns) and the multiple regressive pseudospectra model. The iLBP descriptor itself is considered together with computational algorithm that is based on the sign image representation. W...

The local binary pattern (LBP) provides a simple and efficient approach to gray-scale and rotation invariant texture classification. However, the LBP operator thresholds P neighbors at the value of the center pixel in a local neighborhood and employs a P-bit binary pattern to encode only the signs of the differences between the gray values. Thus, the LBP operator discards some important texture...

Local Binary Patterns (LBP) is a non-parametric descriptor whose purpose to effectively summarize local image configurations.
