Abstract
A logic artificial neural network paradigm is used to cluster texture spectra in feature space to achieve image segmentation. The features are grouped such that they represent regions of textural homogeneity on the image. These are extracted from small local areas on the image. The strategy results in a feature spectrum transformation of the image. The logic neural network is characterized by short training and operating times compared to the analogue neural networks. The network runs in an unsupervised mode, which excludes the need for external supervision during operation. The variable-sensitive characteristics of the network are illustrated with the aid of natural texture image composites.
