Structuring of large and heterogeneous texture databases
Abdourrahmane Mahamane Atto, Yannick Berthoumieu · 2011
Processing large databases is intricate for databases involving several types of textures. In particular, for content-based image retrieval, a query has to be compared with all the samples pertaining to the database in order to identify its content/class and this is time consuming. Furthermore, modeling of a large database is a difficult task for databases involving several types of textures since accurate models for certain textures are not guaranteed to be very relevant for other types of textures and vice-versa. In order to save computational time and increase performance in processing of large texture databases, the present paper proposes structuring texture databases by using stochasticity metaclasses.
