Magnetic Resonance Imaging play a vital role in the decision-diagnosis process of brain MR images. For an accurate diagnosis of brain related problems, the experts mostly compares both T1 and T2 weighted images as the information presented in these two images are complementary. In this paper, rotational and translational invariant form of Local binary Pattern (LBP) with additional gray scale in...

In this paper, we propose a novel representation, called Multiscale Block Local Binary Pattern (MB-LBP), and apply it to face recognition. The Local Binary Pattern (LBP) has been proved to be effective for image representation, but it is too local to be robust. InMB-LBP, the computation is done based on average values of block subregions, instead of individual pixels. In this way, MB-LBP code p...

B-scan ultrasound provides a non-invasive low-cost imaging solution to primary care diagnostics. The inherent speckle noise in the images produced by this technique introduces uncertainty in the representation of their textural characteristics. To cope with the uncertainty, we propose a novel fuzzy feature extraction method to encode local texture. The proposed method extends the Local Binary P...

Both the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and the Coordinated Clusters Representation (CCR) are two methods used successfully in the classification and segmentation of images. They look very similar at first sight. In this work we analyze the principles of the two methods and show that the methods are not reducible to each other. Topologically they are as different as a sphere and a torus. In extract...

Textures play an important role in recognition of images. This paper investigates the efficiency of performance of three texture based feature extraction methods for face recognition. The methods for comparative study are Grey Level Co_occurence Matrix (GLCM), Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and Elliptical Local Binary Template (ELBT). Experiments were conducted on a facial expression database, Japa...

Medical image watermarking represents a promising alternative tool regarding many security aspects such: digital rights, authenticity and integrity content protection issues. Achieving successful should be achieved by choosing the most significant important patterns describing image. This strategy also ensure tradeoff between robustness of watermark against attacks computational time both for e...

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...

In this paper we present a method for objects tracking in images sequence. This approach is achieved into two main steps. In the first one, we constructed the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) histogram pattern of each image in the sequence and the reference pattern. In the second one, we perform the algorithm by the pattern selected based on a distance measures to find similarity between two histogra...

Humans are extremely proficient at perceiving natural scenes and understanding their contents. Scene recognition in Human is the natural activity by which human can easily recognize the scene even if the scene is complex, partially occluded or blurred. In machine vision the recognition rate is less compared with human vision. To improve the recognition rate of the machine vision an efficient st...
