....image modeling which characterizes textures as probability distributions from random fields. Recently, wavelet domain statistical image modeling, which combines the above two aspects, has attracted many attentions and was found useful for various applications, including texture analysis [3, 4, 5, 6, 7] and synthesis [8, 9] Wavelet domain hidden Markov models (HMM) in particular, the hidden Markov tree (HMT) have been recently proposed in [10, 11] and applied to image processing, e.g. denoising [12] and segmentation [13] The HMT can effectively characterize the This work was partially ....

Similarity Noise for QMF wavelet transform A QMF wavelet filter bank was used for texture classification by Kundu [5]. The authors identified several properties of the QMF filter bank as being relevant to texture analysis: orthogonality and completeness of basic functions, filter outputs that are spatially localized and the reduction of complexity afforded by decimation of filter outputs.

....Spectra Fourier power spectrum[5] digital transformation[6] and Wold decomposition[7] are spectral techniques. In recent years, filtering theory becomes a popular trend to analyze textures. Filtering theory is based on multichannel filtering mechanism. Gabor filters[8] and wavelet filters[9] are two approaches of filtering theory. Although filtering theory has excellent performance in image denoising, classification and segmentation, some problems are not well understood according to the paper of Zhu and Mumford[10] For example, how to select a best set of filters from a filter bank ....

The QMF can be applied at multiple scales by recursively decomposing the low frequency subband. Kundu and Chen [40] used the QMF decomposition for texture analysis and compared it with Haralick features. They only applied the QMF to the first level resulting in four subbands. Haralick features (based on a co occurrence matrix) were extracted from the low frequency subband whilst zero crossings were analysed in ....

Here, we choose the five of these features: contrast (CON) angular second momentum (ASM) inverse difference moment (IDM) entropy (ENT) and information measures of correlation (IMC) which were also used in [28]. They can be expressed mathematically as CON = X g1 X g2 (g 1 Gamma g 2 ) 2 p d (g 1 ; g 2 ) ASM = X g1 X g2 [p d (g 1 ; g 2 ) 2 ENT = Gamma X g1 X g2 p d (g 1 ; g 2 )log h p d (g 1 ; g 2 ) i IDM = X g1 X g2 p d (g 1 ; g 2 ) 1 (g 1 Gamma g 2 ) 2 ....

....Texture refers to a visual pattern that has properties of homogeneity that do not result from the presence of only a single color or intensity. Previous attempts at modeling texture include the following approaches: random field modeling [11] co occurrence matrices [8] and s f techniques [5][10] [13] which include in particular, Gabor filters [2] 9] 12] Thus far, no single best texture model has been identified. However, there is evidence that early human vision uses receptive field units tuned to orientations and s f s [7] In particular, models of the human visual system that use ....

The most commonly used feature for texture analysis in the wavelet domain is the energy of the subband coefficients [4, 5]. Since the coefficients are quite sparse, it is necessary to perform some type of window operation to obtain a more uniform characterization of texture. In [4, 5] the average of the energy of the coefficients in a small window was used. In [11,20] both the mean and standard deviation of the ....
