Combined scattering for rotation invariant texture analysis

This paper introduces a combined scattering representation for texture classification, which is invariant to rotations and stable to deformations. A combined scattering is computed with two nested cascades of wavelet transforms and complex modulus, along spatial and rotation variables. Results are compared with state-of-the-art algorithms, with a nearest neighbor classifier.
