Abstract

The size and configuration of pores are key features for wood identification. In this paper, these features are extracted and then used for construction of a decision tree to recognize three different kinds of pore distributions in wood microscopic images. The contribution of this paper lies in three aspects. Firstly, two different sets of features about pores were proposed and extracted; Secondly, two decision trees were built with those two sets by C4.5 algorithm; Finally, the acceptable recognition results of up to 75.6% were obtained and the possibility to improve was discussed.
