LARGE-SCALE-INVARIANT TEXTURE RECOGNITION

Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of texture recognition across large scale variations. Most of the existing methods for texture recognition handle only small-scale variations in test images. We propose using microscopic-scale textures to classify texture images at any coarser scale without prior knowledge of the relative scale. In particular, given a test camera image, we compute the average error of approximating the test texture with patches of the microscopic texture for certain category and scaling factor. Recognition is made by selecting the category with the minimum average error over all categories and scaling factors. Experiments on camera and low-magnification microscopic images show the validity of the proposed method.
