2-D moving average models for texture synthesis and analysis
Kie Bum Eom · IEEE Transactions on Image Processing · 1998
In this correspondence, a random field model based on moving average (MA) time-series model is proposed for modeling stochastic and structured textures. A frequency domain algorithm to synthesize MA textures is developed, and maximum likelihood estimators are derived. The Cramer-Rao lower bound is also derived for measuring the estimator accuracy. The estimation algorithm is applied to real textures, and images resembling natural textures are synthesized using estimated parameters.
