Title: On Textures: A Sketch of a Texture-Based Image Segmentation Approach
Abstract: In the context of this work we present a new approach of domain- independent texture segmentation. The texture segmentation is implemented by a combination of region and edge-oriented segmentation methodes. The region- oriented segmentation procedure is based on texture energy measures (Laws(1979)). For each pixel an energy value is calculated, which serves as the homogeneity criterion. The edge-oriented methode measures texture edges by energy distributions in certain directions (Yu et al. (1991)). The texture edges serve then as discontinuity criterion for the blob coloring algorithm (Ballard, Brown (1982)) adapted to grey values. The texture region image and the texture edges image are combined to one texture-based segmented image.
