Abstract

In this paper we present an experimental analysis of colour-based texture image classification in order to evaluate whether colour and texture information should be used jointly or separately. Various colour spaces are used for colour information extraction. The complex wavelet transform is used to extract texture information. Results show that colour and texture information should be treated separately. As well, they evidence that colour is highly important when present in textured images.
