Abstract:
This paper presents a feature extraction algorithm using
wavelet decomposed images of an image and its complementary
image for texture classification.The features are
constructed from the different combination of sub-band
images. These features offer a better discriminating
strategy for texture classification and enhance the
classification rate. In our study we have used the Euclidean
distance measure and the minimum distance classifier to
classify the texture. The experimental results demonstrate
the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
Keywords:
Wavelet decomposition, Texture, Feature Extraction,
Classification.
