Abstract

This paper presents a new efficient technique for supervised pixel-based texture classification. The proposed scheme first performs a selection process that automatically determines a subset of prototypes that characterize each texture class based on the outcome of a multichannel Gabor wavelet filter bank. Then, every image pixel is classified into one of the given texture classes by using a K-NN classifier fed with the prototypes determined previously. The proposed technique is compared to previous texture classifiers by using both Brodatz and real outdoor textured images.
