Statistical features for image retrieval a quantitative comparison

In this paper we present a comparison between various statistical descriptors and analyze their goodness in classifying textural images. The chosen statistical descriptors have been proposed by Tamura, Battiato and Haralick. In this work we also test a combination of the three descriptors for texture analysis. The databases used in our study are the well-known Brodatz's album and DDSM (Heath et al., 1998). The computed features are classified using the Naive Bayes, the RBF, the KNN, the Random Forest and Random Tree models. The results obtained from this study show that we can achieve a high classification accuracy if the descriptors are used all together.
