Abstract
- Texture is an important characteristic for different computer vision tasks and applications. Local binary pattern (LBP) is considered one of the most efficient texture descriptors yet. However, LBP has some notable limitations, in particular its sensitivity to noise. In this paper, we address these criteria by introducing a novel texture descriptor, robust adaptive median binary pattern (RAMBP). RAMBP is based on a process involving classification of noisy pixels, adaptive analysis window, scale analysis, and a comparison of image medians. The proposed method handles images with highly noisy textures and increases the discriminative properties by capturing microstructure and macrostructure texture information. The method was evaluated on popular texture datasets for classification and retrieval tasks and under different high noise conditions. Without any training or prior knowledge of the noise type, RAMBP achieved the best classification compared to state-of-the-art techniques. It scored more than 90% under 50% impulse noise densities, more than 95% under Gaussian noised textures with a standard deviation $\sigma = 5$ , more than 99% under Gaussian blurred textures with a standard deviation $\sigma = 1.25$ , and more than 90% for mixed noise. The proposed method yielded competitive results and proved to be one of the best descriptors in noise-free texture classification. Furthermore, RAMBP showed high performance for the problem of noisy texture retrieval providing high scores of recall and precision measures for textures with high noise levels. Finally, compared with the state-of-the-art methods, RAMBP achieves a good running time with low feature dimensionality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
