As a unit of the Research Division at the Institute, the group does research in various areas related to computer vision and its applications.
Texture plays a key role both in human and machine vision.
Basic, perceptually motivated properties of textures are their regularity, anisotropy, and complexity. Many of the FBIM based solutions are already supported by the results of systematic experiments with large test image databases, such as the UW-I document image database compiled at the University of Washington in Seattle. Both texture and shape keys will be used, including characteristic configurations of specific, readily detectable feature points such as corners. A textile texture with a structural defect. The detected defect overlaid on the texture.
