Texture classification based upon spatial autocorrelation

In this paper, we propose a method of texture classification based upon contiguity concepts and Moran's spatial autocorrelation coefficient. First, we introduce essential concepts about contiguity and Moran's coefficient (section 2 and section 3). Then, we are able to propose a classification of a set with 30 textures based on computation of those Moran's coefficients (section 4). We discuss obtained results.
