Moment-based texture segmentation

Abstract Texture segmentation is one of the early steps towards identifying surfaces and objects in an image. In this paper a moment-based texture segmentation algorithm is presented. The moments in small windows of the image are used as texture features which are then used to segment the textures. The algorithm has successfully segmented binary images containing textures with iso-second-order statistics as well as a number of gray-level texture images.
