Characterization of Complex Image Spatial Structures Based on Symmetrical Weibull Distribution Model for Texture Pattern Classification by Jinping Liu, Jiezhou He, Zhaohui Tang, Pengfei Xu, Wuxia Zhang, Weihua Gui

“…Multidirectional and multiscale TP features are then characterized by the SWDM parameters based on the oriented differential operators; in other words, texture images are convolved with multiscale and multidirectional Gaussian derivative filters (GDFs), including the steerable isotropic GDFs (SIGDFs) and the oriented anisotropic GDFs (OAGDFs), for the omnidirectional and multiscale SS detail exhibition with low computational complexity. Finally, SWDM-based TP feature parameters, demonstrated to be directly related to the human vision perception system with significant physical perception meaning, are extracted and used to TP classification with a partial least squares-discriminant analysis- (PLS-DA-) based classifier. …”
