A novel texture classification method based on Hessian matrix and principal curvatures [Hessian matrisi ve temel eǧriliklere dayanan yeni bir doku siniflandirma metodu]

Abstract

In this study, in order to obtain similar effect with conventional gradient operation and extract more robust feature for texture, we use the principal curvature informations instead of the gradient calculation. Through this methods, sharp and important informations about the texture images were obtained by analyzing images of the second order. Considering the classification results obtained, it is shown that the proposed method improve the performance of original CoHOG and HOG feature extraction methods. As a result of experiments on datasets with different characteristics, it is seen that, the proposed method has higher classification performance. © 2014 IEEE.
