  • Abstract
    This paper introduces Textured Renyi Entropy for image thresholding based on a novel combination mechanism. The Renyi Entropy is extended by modifying its priori, while still preserving overall functionality. An optional priori is introduced to improve accuracy. The priori modification allows adding of texture information in an efficient way, which results in more accurate thresholding. Furthermore, the proposed mechanism allows adding other features after some normalization. Finally the novel way allows adding multiple features simultaneously using the modified priors.
