Multi-Block Local Binary Pattern for texture classification
|
|
===========================================================
|
|
|
|
This example shows how to compute multi-block local binary pattern (MB-LBP)
|
|
features as well as how to visualize them.
|
|
|
|
The features are calculated similarly to local binary patterns (LBPs), except
|
|
that summed blocks are used instead of individual pixel values.
|
|
|
|
MB-LBP is an extension of LBP that can be computed on multiple scales in
|
|
constant time using the integral image. 9 equally-sized rectangles are used to
|
|
compute a feature. For each rectangle, the sum of the pixel intensities is
|
|
computed. Comparisons of these sums to that of the central rectangle determine
|
|
the feature, similarly to LBP (See `LBP <plot_local_binary_pattern.html>`_).
|
|
|
|
First, we generate an image to illustrate the functioning of MB-LBP: consider
|
|
a (9, 9) rectangle and divide it into (3, 3) block, upon which we then apply
|
|
MB-LBP.
