A database of homogeneous texture images , Several test suites of texture classification problems , Implementations of major texture classification paradigms , and A framework for the quantitative measurement of texture classification algorithms on the texture problem test suites. Software implementing the framework is available. Downloading, installing and using the framework Adding test suites, implementations, or results Related literature Version 1.1 of the MeasTex framework is now available. See the Maintenance log for bug fixes and other changes. MeasTex is about the MEAS urement of TEX ture classification algorithms.
Visual texture is a property of a region in an image.
Texture is independent of the colour and brightness of the region. The grain of timber is a good example of image texture. Different species of timber have visually distinct grain patterns. These patterns allow these species to be identified, even if the natural colour of the wood has been altered by staining, aging or treatment with chemicals. Visual texture, or image texture, has many important scientific applications.
