used to evaluate these computational measures with respect to human measures is depicted and experimental results are given. It should be noted that the study reported here was tested on a sample of 12 images ( Fig. 1) from Brodatz database [4]. This sample of images has been chosen to be largely representative.Texture is a very important image feature extremely used in various image processing problems. It has been shown that humans use some perceptual textural features to distinguish between textured images or regions. Some of the most important features are coarseness, contrast, direction and busyness. In this paper a new method based on the autocovariance function to estimate quantitatively these features is shown and the correspondence between these computational measures and the psychological ones made by human subjects is shown using some psychometric method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
