Background:

  • Texture segmentation is crucial for image analysis.
  • The local Gabor power spectrum offers a robust feature for texture analysis.
  • Existing segmentation methods have limitations in handling complex textures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate texture segmentation techniques using the local Gabor power spectrum.
  • To investigate the effectiveness of supervised pixel classification, boundary detection, and region-based segmentation.
  • To propose an improved segmentation framework by integrating region and boundary detection.

Main Methods:

  • Supervised pixel classification using local Gabor features.
  • Boundary detection via spectral dissimilarity estimation.
