Abstract

A statistical approach based on the coordinated clusters representation of images is used for classification and recognition of textured images. In this paper, two issues are being addressed; one is the extraction of texture features from the fuzzy texture spectrum in the chromatic and achromatic domains from each colour component histogram of natural texture images and the second issue is the concept of a fusion of multiple classifiers. The implementation of an advanced neuro-fuzzy learning scheme has been also adopted in this paper. The results of classification tests show the high performance of the proposed method that may have industrial application for texture classification, when compared with other works.
