Computer Description of Textured Surfaces

This work deals with computer analysis of textured surfaces. Descriptions of textures are form­alized from natural language descriptions. Local texture descriptions are obtained from the directional and non-directional components of the Fourier transform power spectrum. Analytic expressions are de­rived for orientation, contrast, size, spacing, and in periodic cases, the locations of texture elements. The local descriptions are defined over windows of varying sizes.See also: ACM Digital Library.In IJCAI-73: THIRD INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, Stanford University Stanford, California, 20-23 August
