Abstract :
The fractal model is used as the basis of a texture analysis and synthesis technique for use on perceived visual texture in natural scenes of vegetation. Preliminary studies found that natural scenes depart from the fractal model. The model is adapted to allow for deviation between perceived natural visual texture and true fractals. The texture generator is used to synthesize natural visual texture. A transputer array is used for fast parallel analysis of the perceived visual texture of natural scenes for robot vision
