Abstract

A framework for texture analysis based on combined unsupervised and supervised learning is proposed. The textured input is represented in the frequency-orientation space via a Gabor-wavelet pyramidal decomposition. In an unsupervised learning phase a neural network vector quantization scheme is used for the quantization of the feature-vector attributes and a projection onto a reduced dimension clustered map for initial segmentation. A supervised stage follows in which labeling of the textured map is achieved using a rule-based system. A set of informative features are extracted in the supervised stage as congruency rules between attributes using an information-theoretic measure. This learned set can now act as a classification set for test images. This approach is suggested as a general framework for pattern classification. Simulation results for the texture classification are given.
