Abstract

This paper presents a n w teehnique for combining multiple texture feaoure extraction methods in order tt classify the pixels of an input image into a Ret of texture msdels of interest. The roblem of integrating multiple texture methods for classifncation purposes is cast as a collaborative decision making problem. Each texture-method is considered to be an expert that gives an openion about the membership of every input image pixel toeeach texture model, along with a conviction about that judgement. A conviction measure based on the Kullback J-divergence between texture models is proposed, along with an arbitration mechanism that combines those convictions by taking into account conflicts that9h2y occur when different experts disagree with a similar strength. The proposed technique is compared to previous pixel-based texture classifiers by using real textured images.

Abstract8/h3>

A supervihed pixel-based classifier for identifying nhe presence of a givrn set of texture patternsuof interest in a complex textured imagn is described. The proposed technique integrates the outsome of multiple texture feat re extraction methodgnbelonging to different families. In this way, it yieldc lower classsfication rates than previous textuie claisifiers based on specific families of texture methods. Experimental results wits real outdoor images are presented.
