A new texture analysis approach

A new texture analysis approach by using Gibbs random field model is discussed. A parameter vector is defined in order to compute potentials of textures. It is found that texture features can be provided by its corresponding parameter vector, and the vector can be estimated in terms of maximum potential. Conclusions can be inferred that this new method based on the maximum potential is valid. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China Zhang Zhan: born in 1971, Ph.
