AbstractThe need for a fast and robust method to characterize nanostructure thickness is growing due to the tremendous number of experiments and their associated applications. By automatically analyzing the microscopic image texture of MoS2 and WS2, it was possible to distinguish monolayer from few-layer nanostructures with high accuracy for both materials. Three methods of texture analysis (TA) were used: grey level histogram (GLH), grey levels co-occurrence matrix (GLCOM), and run-length matrix (RLM), which correspond to first, second, and higher-order statistical methods, respectively. The best discriminating features were automatically selected using the Fisher coefficient, for each method, and used as a base for classification. Two classifiers were used: artificial neural networks (ANN), and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). RLM with ANN was found to give high classification accuracy, which was 89% and 95% for MoS2 and WS2, respectively. The result of this work suggests that RLM, as a higher-order TA method, associated with an ANN classifier has a better ability to quantify and characterize the microscopic structure of nanolayers, and, therefore, categorize thickness to the proper class.

It is well known that the interpretation of high resolution (<100 m) visible and near infrared (e.g. Landsat) imagery of large ice masses is hindered by the uniform reflectivity of snow, ice and cloud surfaces. Such interpretation is at present largely performed manually, but there is a good prospect that it could be automated by the incorporation of image texture. This paper describes preliminary work towards the identification of the most appropriate texture technique, or combination of techniques, and assesses the likely performance of such methods.Different textures are identified with different types of surface cover, and the use of these differences to classify images is investigated. Specifically, we compare a traditional texture measure, the Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), with a modification of a relatively new technique, fractional Brownian motion (FBM). These two methods are applied to three Landsat MSS images of the Nordaustlandet ice cap, Svalbard. The classification accuracy, computation time and memory required, advantages and limitations of the two methods are compared. The GLCM technique appears to be able to distinguish three groups of image classes, namely dry snow, wet snow, and melt features, ablation areas or cloud cover. The FBM technique is computationally more efficient, and though it performs in general less well than the GLCM technique it gives better discrimination of cloud cover.

Quantification and classification of heterogeneous radiotracer uptake in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) using textural features (termed as radiomics) and artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to be used as a biomarker of diagnosis and prognosis. However, textural features have been predicted to be strongly correlated with volume, segmentation and quantization, while the impact of image contrast and noise has not been assessed systematically. Further continuous investigations are required to update the existing standardization initiatives. This study aimed to investigate the relationships between textural features and these factors with 18F filled torso NEMA phantom to yield different contrasts and reconstructed with different durations to represent varying levels of noise. The phantom was also scanned with heterogeneous spherical inserts fabricated with 3D printing technology. All spheres were delineated using: (1) the exact boundaries based on their known diameters; (2) 40% fixed; and (3) adaptive threshold. Six textural features were derived from the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) using different quantization levels. The results indicate that homogeneity and dissimilarity are the most suitable for measuring PET tumor heterogeneity with quantization 64 provided that the segmentation method is robust to noise and contrast variations. To use these textural features as prognostic biomarkers, changes in textural features between baseline and treatment scans should always be reported along with the changes in volumes.

Machine learning plays an important role in computational intelligence and has been widely used in many engineering fields. Surface voids or bugholes frequently appearing on concrete surface after the casting process make the corresponding manual inspection time consuming, costly, labor intensive, and inconsistent. In order to make a better inspection of the concrete surface, automatic classification of concrete bugholes is needed. In this paper, a variable selection strategy is proposed for pursuing feature interpretability, together with an automatic ensemble classification designed for getting a better accuracy of the bughole classification. A texture feature deriving from the Gabor filter and gray-level run lengths is extracted in concrete surface images. Interpretable variables, which are also the components of the feature, are selected according to a presented cumulative voting strategy. An ensemble classifier with its base classifier automatically assigned is provided to detect whether a surface void exists in an image or not. Experimental results on 1000 image samples indicate the effectiveness of our method with a comparable prediction accuracy and model explicable.

Recent advances in computer vision have allowed wide-ranging applications in every area of ​​life. One such area of ​​application is the classification of fresh products, but the classification of fruits and vegetables has proven to be a complex problem and needs further development. In recent years, various machine learning techniques have been exploited with many methods of describing the different features of fruit and vegetable classification in many real-life applications. Classification of fruits and vegetables presents significant challenges due to similarities between layers and irregular characteristics within the class.Hence , in this work, three feature extractor/ descriptor which are local binary pattern (LBP), gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) and, histogram of oriented gradient(HoG) has been proposed to extract fruite features , the  extracted  features have been saved in three feature vectors , then desicion tree classifier has been proposed to classify the fruit types. fruits 360 datasets  is  used  in this work,   where 70% of the dataset were used  in the training phase while 30% of it used in the testing phase. The three proposed feature extruction methods plus the tree  classifier have been used to  classifying  fruits 360 images, results show that the the three feature extraction methods  give a promising results , while the HoG method yielded a poerfull results in which  the accuracy obtained is 96%.

Texture analysis research attempts to solve two important kinds of problems: texture segmentation and texture classification. In some applications, textured image segmentation can be solved by classification of small regions obtained from image partition. Two classes of features are proposed in the decision theoretic recognition problem for textured image classification. The first class derives from the mean co-occurrence matrices: contrast, energy, entropy, homogeneity, and variance. The second class is based on fractal dimension and is derived from a box-counting algorithm. For the purpose of increasing texture classification performance, the notions “mean co-occurrence matrix” and “effective fractal dimension” are introduced and utilized. Some applications of the texture and fractal analyses are presented: road analysis for moving objective, defect detection in textured surfaces, malignant tumour detection, remote land classification, and content based image retrieval. The results confirm the efficiency of the proposed methods and algorithms.

Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is a technique for searching images from database based on information from the image which developed because the technique based on text-based is less effective for represent an image. CBIR skin disease in this research use 12 sample of skin disease images such as Acne, Acropustulosis, Alopecia, Dermatitis, Hemangioma, Herpes, Ichtyosis, Molluscum, Nummular, Skin Tag, Urticaria, and Vitiligo. Method use for this research is for extraction texture feature and color feature from a skin disease image. Texture feature is using co-occurrence Matrix which compute energy, contrast, entropy, homogeneity, and correlation until vector texture result. Extraction color use color moments to compute color space using three moments which result color feature from color distributions such as mean, standard deviation, and skewness. Final result showed the comparison of similarity computation of two methods is the acuration of Color Moments method is more robust than Co-occurrence Matrix Method for skin disease images.
