“…In [13], for instance, texture features were extracted from wavelet transform and co-occurrence matrices for each color channel. In [14], Leung-Malik filter banks were applied on each color channel for color texture feature extraction. The opponent strategy extends texture feature extraction to color images thanks to both within-and between-channel analyses.…”

“…Some classical supervised classifiers are used for texture segmentation [1,4,17]. Among them are the K-nearest neighbor (KNN) [18] and the Bayesian [19] classifiers, the support vector machine (SVM) [20], random forest [12], Markov random field [11], and neural networks [14]. Supervised color texture segmentation based on deep learning has been developed in the last decade [21][22][23].…”

Fuzzy gray-level aura matrices have been developed from fuzzy set theory and the aura concept to characterize texture images. They have proven to be powerful descriptors for color texture classification. However, using them for color texture segmentation is difficult because of their high memory and computation requirements. To overcome this problem, we propose to extend fuzzy gray-level aura matrices to fuzzy color aura matrices, which would allow us to apply them to color texture image segmentation. Unlike the marginal approach that requires one fuzzy gray-level aura matrix for each color channel, a single fuzzy color aura matrix is required to locally characterize the interactions between colors of neighboring pixels. Furthermore, all works about fuzzy gray-level aura matrices consider the same neighborhood function for each site. Another contribution of this paper is to define an adaptive neighborhood function based on information about neighboring sites provided by a pre-segmentation method. For this purpose, we propose a modified simple linear iterative clustering algorithm that incorporates a regional feature in order to partition the image into superpixels. All in all, the proposed color texture image segmentation boils down to a superpixel classification using a simple supervised classifier, each superpixel being characterized by a fuzzy color aura matrix. Experimental results on the Prague texture segmentation benchmark show that our method outperforms the classical state-of-the-art supervised segmentation methods and is similar to recent methods based on deep learning.
