A color texture is regarded as a pattern described by
the relationship between its structural and chromatic
distributions. There are two basic feature extraction
approaches [18] for segmentation of such color
textures. In one approach, gray level texture feature is
computed separately for each color band and, in the
other, textural features are computed from the intensity
image and color features are obtained separately. Both
the approaches have been used in different existing color texture segmentation problems. Our approach
belongs to the latter category.
