Abstract
This paper proposes an interactive texture segmentation method base on graph cuts. It extracts the texture features by using multi-scale nonlinear structure tensor, and discusses dissimilarity measure and probability distribution of features in the Riemannian space, which are used to design the edge-based and region-based items of the segmentation model respectively. To construct distributions, we employ the Gaussian mixture model with covariant-scale based full covariance structure. Additionally, we propose the spectral decomposition based recursive clustering algorithm to estimate the corresponding statistics. The comparisons of various texture segmentation experiments demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.
