  • Abstract
    This paper presents a novel algorithm for unsupervised texture segmentation. The proposed algorithm incorporates the local binary pattern operator under a segmentation framework based on the active contour without edges model. The experiments performed, show that it can be used for fast segmentation of two-textured images, outperforming recent texture segmentation algorithms, with a segmentation quality that reaches 99% on average
