This model is based on the formalism of finite mixtures of multivariate generalized Gaussians (MoMGG) which enables to build a compact and accurate representation of texture images using multi-resolution texture transforms. The MoMGG model enables to describe the joint statistics of subbands in different scales and orientations, as well as between adjacent locations within the same subband, providing a precise description of the texture layout. It can also combine different multi-scale transforms to build a richer and more representative texture signature for image similarity measurement. We tested our model on both traditional texture transforms (e.g., wavelets, contourlets, maximum response filter) and convolution neural networks (CNNs) features (e.g., ResNet, SqueezeNet). Experiments on color-texture image retrieval have demonstrated the performance of our approach comparatively to state-of-the-art methods. © 2023},

abstract = {This paper addresses the textile defect detection problem using a machine-learning approach. We propose a novel algorithm that uses supervised learning to classify textile textures in defect and non-defect classes based on suitable feature extraction and classification. We use statistical modeling of multi-scale contourlet image decomposition to obtain compact and accurate signatures for texture description. Our defect detection algorithm is based on two phases. In the first phase, using a training set of images, we extract reference defect-free signatures for each textile category. Then, we use the Bayes classifier (BC) to learn signatures of defected and non-defected classes. In the second phase, defects are detected on new images using the trained BC and an appropriate decomposition of images into blocks. Our algorithm has the capability to achieve highly accurate defect detection and localisation in textile textures while ensuring an efficient computational time. Compared to recent state-of-the-art methods, our algorithm has yielded better results on the standard TILDA database. © 2015, IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control) Hosting by Elsevier Ltd.

abstract = {In this paper, we develop a new framework for contourlet-based statistical modeling using finite Mixtures of Generalized Gaussian distributions (MoGG). On the one hand, given the rich directional information provided by the contourlet transform (CT), we propose to use a redundant version of the CT, which describes texture structures more accurately. On the other hand, we use MoGG modeling of contourlet coefficients distribution, which allows for precise capturing of a wide range of histogram shapes and provides better description and discrimination of texture than single probability density functions (pdfs). Moreover, we propose three applications for the proposed approach, namely: (1) texture retrieval, (2) fabric texture defect detection, and 3) infrared (IR) face recognition. We compare two implementations of the CT: standard CT (SCT) and redundant CT (RCT). We show that the proposed approach yields better results in the applications studied compared to recent state-of-the-art methods. © 2014 IEEE.},

abstract = {The feeling of presence has been shown to be an important concept in several clinical applications of virtual reality. Among the factors influencing presence, realism factors have been examined extensively from the angle of objective realism. Objective realism has been manipulated by altering numerous technological characteristics such as pictorial quality, texture and shading, or by adding more sensory information (i.e.; smell, touch). Much less studied is the subjective (or perceived) realism, the focus of the two pilot studies reported in this article. In Study 1, subjective realism was manipulated in order to assess the impact on the feeling of presence. Method: Presence was measured in 31 adults after two immersions in virtual reality. Participants were immersed in a neutral/irrelevant virtual environment and subsequently subjected to the experimental manipulation. Participants in the experimental condition were falsely led to believe that they were immersed live in real time in a "real" room with a "real" mouse in a cage. In the control condition, participants believed they were immersed in a replica of the nearby room. All participants were actually immersed in the exact same virtual environment. Results: A manipulation check revealed that 80% of the participants believed in the deception. A 2 Times by 2 Conditions repeated measure ANOVA revealed that leading people to believe they were seeing a real environment digitized live in virtual reality increased their feeling of presence compared to the control condition. In Study 2, the same experimental design was used but with simultaneous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in order to assess brain areas potentially related to the feeling of presence. fMRI data from five participants were subjected to a within subject fixed effect analysis to verify differences between the experimental immersion (higher presence) and the control immersion (lower presence). Results revealed a statistically significant difference in left and right parahippocampus areas. Conclusion: Results are discussed according to layers of presence and consciousness and the meaning given to experiences occurring in virtual reality. Some suggestions are formulated to target core presence and extended presence. © 2012 British Informatics Society Limited. All rights reserved.},

By fully automatic, we mean that the steps of region initialization and calculation of the number of regions are performed automatically by the method. The region information is formulated using a mixture of pdfs for the combination of colour and texture features. The segmentation is obtained by minimizing an energy functional combining boundary and region information, which evolves the initial region contours towards the real region boundaries and adapts the mixture parameters to the region data. The method is implemented using the level sets that permit automatic handling of topology changes and stable numerical schemes.
