Recognition of image with natural textures based on learning of information augmentation

Abstract

The efficiency of pattern recognition depends heavily on that if feature extraction and selecting are effective. Complicated image such as medical image and remote sensing image, belong to image with natural textures, this kind of image is always of high resolution, with many layers of gray degree, and a very intricate shape structure. Because there are no obvious shapes, but only distributions of some gray degrees and colors in these images, so for them, there are no good methods yet for feature extraction and region recognition. In this paper, based on information augmentation and kinetics, we present a learning algorithm, which can be used to do region classification of the abovementioned images with natural textures. We applied our algorithm to recognition of image with natural textures and obtained a good result. © 2005 by International Federation for Information Processing.
