Texture feature performance for image segmentation

TLDR
Results obtained show that direct feature statistics such as the Bhattacharyya distance are not appropriate evaluation criteria if texture features are used for image segmentation, and that the Haralick, Laws and Unser methods gave best overall results.

Textural Features for Image Classification

TL;DR: These results indicate that the easily computable textural features based on gray-tone spatial dependancies probably have a general applicability for a wide variety of image-classification applications.

Statistical and structural approaches to texture

TL;DR: This survey reviews the image processing literature on the various approaches and models investigators have used for texture, including statistical approaches of autocorrelation function, optical transforms, digital transforms, textural edgeness, structural element, gray tone cooccurrence, run lengths, and autoregressive models.

Image Segmentation Techniques

TL;DR: There are several image segmentation techniques, some considered general purpose and some designed for specific classes of images as discussed by the authors, some of which can be classified as: measurement space guided spatial clustering, single linkage region growing schemes, hybrid link growing scheme, centroid region growing scheme and split-and-merge scheme.

A comparative study of texture measures for terrain classification.

J. S. Weszka, +1 more
TL;DR: Three standard approaches to automatic texture classification make use of features based on the Fourier power spectrum, on second-order gray level statistics, and on first-order statistics of gray level differences, respectively; it was found that the Fouriers generally performed more poorly, while the other feature sets all performned comparably.
