Quaternionic gabor filters for local structure classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce quaternionic Gabor filters for the classification of local image structure. These filters are constructed as windowed basis functions of the quaternionic Fourier transform. We show that – in contrast to the 2D complex Gabor filters – the quaternionic Gabor filters are intrinsically 2D filters. A generalized phase concept is introduced and compared to the classical one. It is shown how local image structure can be classified by the value of the local quaternionic phase.

Color Face Recognition using Quaternionic Gabor Filters
While automated face recognition is a very important area of research and implementation, very few techniques make use of color information in recognition. However, both testing and analytic work indicate the potential advantages of using color. Existing work in Gabor filters for face recognition shows great promise, especially in robustness to illumination and pose variations. This proposed re...
متن کاملColour-Texture Image Segmentation using Hypercomplex Gabor Analysis
Texture analysis such as segmentation and classification plays a vital role in computer vision and pattern recognition and is widely applied to many areas such as industrial automation, bio-medical image processing and remote sensing. In this paper, we first extend the well-known Gabor filters to color images using a specific form of hypercomplex numbers known as quaternions. These filters are ...
متن کامل3D Gabor Based Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection
Hyperspectral anomaly detection is one of the main challenging topics in both military and civilian fields. The spectral information contained in a hyperspectral cube provides a high ability for anomaly detection. In addition, the costly spatial information of adjacent pixels such as texture can also improve the discrimination between anomalous targets and background. Most studies miss the wort...

Introduction: The process of discriminating among benign and malignant hyperplasia begun with subjective methods using light microscopy and is now being continued with computerized morphometrical analysis requiring some features. One of the main features called Volume Percentage of Stroma (VPS) is obtained by calculating the percentage of stroma texture. Currently, this feature is calculated ...
متن کاملFacial Expression Recognition Using Log-Gabor Filters and Local Binary Pattern Operators
This study investigates two different methods of feature extraction for person-independent facial expression recognition from images. The logarithmic Gabor filters and the local binary pattern operator (LBP) were used for feature extraction. Then, the optimum features were selected based on minimum redundancy and maximum relevance algorithm (MRMR). Six different facial expressions were consider...
