Abstract

This work presents a novel descriptor for texture images based on fractal geometry and its application to image analysis. The descriptors are provided by estimating the triangular prism fractal dimension under different scales with a weight exponential parameter, followed by dimensionality reduction using Karhunen-Loeve transform. The efficiency of the proposed descriptors is tested on four well-known texture data sets, that is, Brodatz, Vistex, UIUC and KTH-TIPS2b, both for classification and image retrieval. The novel method is also tested concerning invariances in situations when the textures are rotated or affected by Gaussian noise. The obtained results outperform other classical and state-of-the-art descriptors in the literature and demonstrate the power of the triangular descriptors in these tasks, suggesting their use in practical applications of image analysis based on texture features.
