Abstract

In Chapters 11 and 12 we studied smoothing and edge detection and in Chapter 13 simple neighborhoods. In this chapter, we will take these important building blocks and extend them to analyze complex patterns, known as texture in image processing. Actually, textures demonstrate the difference between an artificial world of objects whose surfaces are only characterized by their color and reflectivity properties to that of real-world imagery.
