Caractérisation de textures à l'aide d'un codage directionnel local

Abstract

Texture characterisation with a local directional coding

In this paper, we propose a texture characterisation method based on a coding of the local structure of the texture. The local information in four  directions around a pixel is represented by a local directional code, which is the association of four directional elementary codes. The construction of four directional matrices allows computing efficient texture features for texture characterisation. Classification with 24 Brodatz textures and segmentation experiments show interesting perspectives for this method, which is related to texture unit method.
