Abstract: | This paper presents a new feature extraction method for classifying a texture image into one of the l possible classes Ci, i=1,…,l. It is assumed that the given M × M image characterized by a set of intensity levels, {y(s1,S2), 0≤ss,s2≤M?1}, is a realization of an underlying random field model, known as the Simultaneous Autoregressive Model (SAR). This model is characterized by a set of parameters φ whose probability density function pi(φ), depends on the class to which the image belongs. First it is shown that the maximum likelihood estimate (M.L.E.) , of φ is an appropriate feature vector for classification purposes. The optimum Bayes classifier which minimizes the average probability of classification error, is then designed using . Finally the efficiency of the feature vector is demonstrated through experimental results obtained with some natural texture data and a simpler quadratic mean classifier. |
