TLDR
In this article, the texture energy approach requires only a few convolutions with small (typically 5x5) integer coefficient masks, followed by a moving-window absolute average operation.Abstract:
A method is presented for classifying each pixel of a textured image, and thus for segmenting the scene. The "texture energy" approach requires only a few convolutions with small (typically 5x5) integer coefficient masks, followed by a moving-window absolute average operation. Normalization by the local mean and standard deviation eliminates the need for histogram equalization. Rotation-invariance can also be achieved by using averages of the texture energy features. The convolution masks are separable, and can be implemented with 1-dimensional (vertical and horizontal) or multipass 3x3 convolutions. Special techniques permit rapid processing on general-purpose digital computers.read more

Feature selection with the image grand tour
TL;DR: In this article, a modification of the convolution grand tour is discussed, which allows the user to select convolution kernels which provide useful discriminant ability, both in an unsupervised manner as in the image grand tour, or in a supervised manner using training data.

Textured Image Segmentation
TL;DR: In this article, texture energy is measured by filtering with small masks, typically 5x5, then with a moving-window average of the absolute image values, leading to a simple class of texture energy transforms, which perform better than any of the preceding methods.
