Investigation of Extrema in Digital Images for Texture Analysis.

Abstract

This report investigates the use of extrema (relative minima and maxima) graytones of a digital image, as primitives for texture analysis. Texture in images may be described in terms of extrema density as well as by the attributes of the extrema primitive. The structure of the reachabilty set of the extrema is examined. Included are algorithms to extract these as well as their properties. The report also demonstrates how image segmentation can be achieved on textured regions by the use of primitives such as the reachability sets. (Author)
