Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach for texture classification using Shearlet Transform. The Shearlet Transform is a recently developed tool, which have the multiscale framework which allows to efficiently encode anisotropic features in multivariate problem classes. Shearlets are a newly developed extension of wavelets that are better suited to image characterization. In addition the degree of computational complexity of many proposed texture measures are very high. In this paper, a novel texture classification method that models the adjacent shearlet subband dependences. In this paper the classification efficiencies of Minimum Distance classifier was compared with SVM classifier efficiency. For texture classification, the energy features are used to represent each shearlet subband. Comprehensive validation experiments performed on different datasets proves that this research work outperforms the current methods due to efficient multiscale directional representation of Shearlet Transform.
