Texture classification using block intensity and gradient difference (BIGD) descriptor

作者:

Highlights:

• We present a local descriptor called block intensity and gradient difference BIGD.

• We sample multi-scale block pairs and utilize intensity and gradient differences.

• BIGD captures patch patterns at different orientations and spatial granularities.

• We evaluate BIGD and other peer methods on texture datasets through classification.

• BIGD obtains 0.12%∼6.43% higher accuracy than DMD showing its discriminative ability.
