A Survey on Image Analysis based on Texture

Abstract

Abstract-Texture classification is used in various pattern recognition applications. This paper contains survey on numerous techniques for texture description and different types of texture images. Texture description methods are categorized in to statistical, geometrical, model based, region based and transform based methods. These methodologies vary in their principles of describing and analyzing textures. For the datasets, Brodatz and SIPI texture dataset is the most popularly used dataset despite it being old and with limited samples, other datasets are less used. The study shows that the transform based methods and statistical methods are gaining popularity. The basic objective of this paper is to understand the research work carried out in the field of texture classification.
