Texture surface analysis is very important for machine vision system. We explore Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix-based 2ndorder statistical features to understand image texture surface. We employed several features on our ground-truth dataset to understand its nature; and later employed it in a building dataset. Based on our experimental results, we can conclude that these image features can be useful for texture analysis and related fields.

The Impact

Appropriate matching of rider–horse sizes is becoming an increasingly important issue of riding horses’ care, as the human population becomes heavier. Recently, infrared thermography (IRT) was considered to be effective in differing the effect of 10.6% and 21.3% of the rider:horse bodyweight ratio, but not 10.1% and 15.3%. As IRT images contain many pixels reflecting the complexity of the body’s surface, the pixel relations were assessed by image texture analysis using histogram statistics (HS), gray-level run-length matrix (GLRLM), and gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) approaches. The study aimed to determine differences in texture features of thermal images under the impact of 10–12%, >12 ≤15%, >15 <18% rider:horse bodyweight ratios, respectively. Twelve horses were ridden by each of six riders assigned to light (L), moderate (M), and heavy (H) groups. Thermal images were taken pre- and post-standard exercise and underwent conventional and texture analysis. Texture analysis required image decomposition into red, green, and blue components. Among 372 returned features, 95 HS features, 48 GLRLM features, and 96 GLCH features differed dependent on exercise; whereas 29 HS features, 16 GLRLM features, and 30 GLCH features differed dependent on bodyweight ratio. Contrary to conventional thermal features, the texture heterogeneity measures, InvDefMom, SumEntrp, Entropy, DifVarnc, and DifEntrp, expressed consistent measurable differences when the red component was considered.

Writer identification problem is one of the important area of research due to its various applications and is a challenging task. The major research on writer identification is based on handwritten English documents with text independent and dependent. However, there is no significant work on identification of writers based on Kannada document. Hence, in this paper, we propose a text-independent method for off-line writer identification based on Kannada handwritten scripts. By observing each individual’s handwriting as a different texture image, a set of features based on Discrete Cosine Transform, Gabor filtering and gray level co-occurrence matrix, are extracted from preprocessed document image blocks. Experimental results demonstrate that the Gabor energy features are more potential than the DCTs and GLCMs based features for writer identification from 20 people.

Early diagnosis of osteoporosis can efficiently predict fracture risk. There is a great demand to prevent this disease. The goal of this study was to distinguish osteoporotic cases from healthy controls on 2D bone radiograph images, using texture analysis and genetic algorithms (GAs). Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Run length Matrix (RLM) and Binarized Statistical Image Features (BSIF) were used for texture analysis. Features are numerous and parameter-dependent. The related experts can pick out the useful input features for the classifier. It however remains a difficult task and may be inefficient or even harmful as the data pattern is not clear. In this paper, GAs were used to optimize the two parameters of the co-occurrence matrix (distance parameter or pixel separation, orientation or direction) and the number of gray levels used in the preprocessing quantification step. GAs were also used to select the best combination of features extracted from GLCM and RLM matrices. Experiments were conducted on two populations composed of Osteoporotic Patients and Control Subjects. Results show that GAs combined with GLCM and BSIF features can improve the classification rates (ACC = 87.50%) obtained using GLCM (ACC = 77.8%) alone.

Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships of image texture properties with chewing behaviors, and mechanical properties during mastication of bread. Gray-level gradient co-occurrence matrix (GGCM) was used to process the images of boluses. The chewing behaviors were recorded by electromyography (EMG), and the mechanical properties were measured by texture analyzer. The results showed that among the texture features, the inverse difference moment (IDMGGCM) was selected as the main parameter to describe the decomposition of boluses. IDMGGCM was positively related to the weight gain (r = 0.865, p < 0.01), negatively correlated with hardness (r = –0.835, p <0.01) and EMG activity per cycle (r = –0.767, p < 0.01). GGCM is an effective texture analysis method that could correctly identify 70.1–80.8 % of food bolus images to the corresponding chewing cycles. This study provided a new clue for texture analysis of bread bolus images and offered data revealing the bolus property changes during the mastication of bread.

Texture feature is a measure method about relationship among the pixels in local area, reflecting the changes of image space gray levels. This paper presents a texture feature extraction method based on regional average binary gray level difference co-occurrence matrix, which combined the texture structural analysis method with statistical method. Firstly, we calculate the average binary gray level difference of eight-neighbors of a pixel to get the average binary gray level difference image which expresses the variation pattern of the regional gray levels. Secondly, the regional co-occurrence matrix is constructed by using these average binary gray level differences. Finally, we extract the second-order statistic parameters reflecting the image texture feature from the regional co-occurrence matrix. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the image texture feature extraction method has certain accuracy and validity

AbstractThe need for a fast and robust method to characterize nanostructure thickness is growing due to the tremendous number of experiments and their associated applications. By automatically analyzing the microscopic image texture of MoS2 and WS2, it was possible to distinguish monolayer from few-layer nanostructures with high accuracy for both materials. Three methods of texture analysis (TA) were used: grey level histogram (GLH), grey levels co-occurrence matrix (GLCOM), and run-length matrix (RLM), which correspond to first, second, and higher-order statistical methods, respectively. The best discriminating features were automatically selected using the Fisher coefficient, for each method, and used as a base for classification. Two classifiers were used: artificial neural networks (ANN), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). RLM with ANN was found to give high classification accuracy, which was 89% and 95% for MoS2 and WS2, respectively. The result of this work suggests that RLM, as a higher-order TA method, associated with an ANN classifier has a better ability to quantify and characterize the microscopic structure of nanolayers, and, therefore, categorize thickness to the proper class.

Analisa tekstur adalah satu sifat penting untuk mengenal pasti permukaan dan objek daripada imej perubatan dan pelbagai imej lain. Penyelidikan ini telah membangunkan sebuah algoritma untuk menganalisa tekstur dengan menggunakan imej perubatan dari echocardiography untuk mengenal pasti jantung yang disyaki mengalami myocardial infarction. Di sini penggabungan daripada teknik wavelet extension transform dan teknik gray level co–occurrence matrix adalah dicadangkan. Di dalam penyelidikan ini wavelet extension transform digunakan untuk menghasilkan sebuah imej hampiran yang mempunyai resolusi yang lebih besar. Gray level co–occurrence matrix yang dihitung untuk setiap sub–band digunakan untuk mencirikan empat sifat vektor: entropy, contrast, energy (angular second moment) dan homogeneity (invers difference moment). Pengklasifikasian yang digunakan di dalam penyelidikan ini adalah pengklasifikasian Mahalanobis distance. Kaedah yang telah dicadangkan diuji dengan data klinikal dari imej echocardiography untuk 17 orang pesakit. Untuk setiap pesakit, contoh tisu diambil daripada kawasan yang disyaki infarcted dan kawasan non–infarcted (normal). Untuk setiap pesakit, 8 bingkai imej yang dipisahkan oleh sela waktu tertentu di mana 5 kawasan normal dan 5 kawasan disyaki myocardial infarction berukuran 16×16 piksel akan dianalisa. Hasil pengklasifikasian telah dicapai dengan ketepatan 91.32%. Kata kunci: Analisa tekstur, wavelet extension, co–occurrence matrix, myocardial infarction, sifat vektor Texture analysis is an important characteristic for surface and object identification from medical images and many other types of images. This research has developed an algorithm for texture analysis using medical images do trained from echocardiography in identifying heart with suspected myocardial infarction problem. A set of combination of wavelet extension transform with gray level co–occurrence matrix is proposed. In this work, wavelet extension transform is used to form an image approximation with higher resolution. The gray level co–occurrence matrices computed for each subband are used to extract four feature vectors: entropy, contrast, energy (angular second moment) and homogeneity (inverse difference moment). The classifier used in this work is the Mahalanobis distance classifier. The method is tested with clinical data from echocardiography images of 17 patients. For each patient, tissue samples are taken from suspected infarcted area as well as from non–infarcted (normal) area. For each patient, 8 frames separated by some time interval are used and for each frame, 5 normal regions and 5 suspected myocardial infarction regions of 16×16 pixel size are analyzed. The classification performance achieved 91.32% accuracy. Key words: Texture analysis, wavelet extension, co–occurrence matrix, myocardial infarction, feature vector
