Texture Analysis in Industrial Applications

  • Chapter
Image Technology

Abstract

Problems of texture analysis in industry are considered. First, a literature survey of proposed industrial applications is presented and, then, some popular texture measures which have been successfully used in various applications and new promising approaches proposed recently are described. Finally, a comparative study of the texture measures is carried out by using a classification principle based on comparing sample distribution of feature values to predefined model distributions with known true class labels.
