“…Among 26 candidate image texture features studied in our earlier work, this article exhaustively investigated the optimal texture features based on the SFFS algorithm associated with the BPN scheme. In contrast to the nine texture features obtained in our preceding study, the outcome was six optimal and independent texture features. They consisted of Mean belonging to the fundamental statistics, CON being the Tamura texture feature, and four (RLN(135°), RP(135°), LGRE(45°), LGRE(90°)) in the GLRLM category.…”
