“…were modeled by different statistical models such as GGD, the multivariate Gaussian mixture models (MGMM), Gaussian copula (GC), Student-t copula (StC), or other distributions like Gamma, Rayleigh, Weibull, Laplace, etc. to perform texture-based image retrieval [5,6,7,8,9,10,11]. However, one of the main drawbacks of these techniques is the their expensive computational time which has been observed an discussed in several papers [8,9,10].…”
