Dynamic texture is an extension of texture to the temporal domain. Description and recognition of dynamic textures has attracted growing attention. In this paper, a new method for recognizing dynamic textures is proposed. The textures are modeled with volume local binary patterns (VLBP), which are an extension of the LBP operator widely used in still texture analysis, combining the motion and a...

A new method for action modelling is proposed, which combines the trajectory beam obtained by semi-dense point tracking and a local binary trend description inspired from the Local Binary Patterns (LBP). The semi dense trajectory approach represents a good trade-off between reliability and density of the motion field, whereas the LBP component allows to capture relevant elementary motion elemen...

In this paper we present a novel approach for automatic recognition of ring worm skin disease based on LBP (Local Binary Pattern) feature extracted from the affected skin images. The proposed method is evaluated by extensive experiments on the skin images collected from internet. The dataset is tested using three different classifiers i.e. Bayesian, MLP and SVM. Experimental results show that t...

Osteoarthritis (OA) causes progressive degeneration of articular cartilage and pathological changes in subchondral bone. These changes can be assessed volumetrically using micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging. The local descriptor, i.e. local binary pattern (LBP), is a new alternative solution to perform analysis of local bone structures from μCT scans. In this study, different trabecular bo...

Recent methods for learning similarity between images have presented impressive results in the problem of pair matching (same/notsame classification) of face images. In this paper we explore how well this performance carries over to the related task of multi-option face identification, specifically on the Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW) image set. In addition, we seek to compare the performance...

While features used for texture analysis have been successfully used in some biometric applications, only quite few works have considered them in facial image analysis. Texture-based region descriptors can be very useful in recognizing faces and facial expressions, detecting faces and different facial components, and in other face related tasks. This paper demonstrates this issue by considering...

The approaches proposed for color texture discrimination can be divided into two types: 1) color and texture information are processed separately, and 2) spatial interactions of pixels both within and between color bands are considered. In this paper, we briefly review recent research and propose an approach based on separate processing of complementary color and pattern information. Color hist...

The methods of facial expression feature extraction based on traditional LBP have some drawbacks such as complexity, high dimension of feature vectors, which may reduce the efficiency of subsequent recognition process. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes an improved LBP algorithm——FastLBP(FLBP). FLBP compresses the feature vectors described by LBP histogram to decrease the complexi...

In this work an experimental study about the capability of the LBP, HOG descriptors and color for clothing attribute classification is presented. Two different variants of the LBP descriptor are considered, the original LBP and the uniform LBP. Two classifiers, Linear SVM and Random Forest, have been included in the comparison because they have been frequently used in clothing attributes classi...
