A Solid Texture Database for Segmentation and Classification Experiments
Résumé
This paper describes the methods of construction and the main characteristics of a solid texture database freely available for texture classification experiment. Here the purpose is to propose a solid texture database with many classes of different solid textures to allow an evaluation of properties and performance of analysis methods. Each images is described by a xml file made according to a DTD which is available in our web site. Using this formalism, it is even possible for a researcher to propose his own images or creation methods to complete this solid texture database. At last we discuss about different ways to exploit the database by reviewing some evaluation methods used to evaluate performance of classification and segmentation algorithms.
