Facesketchsynthesis of example image plays an important role in both digital entertainment and law enforcement. In this paper, face sketch synthesis has two main processes. In the first process, neighbors are selected and in the second process, reconstruction weight representation is done. Running time and computation complexity depends on neighbor patches selection process. Face sketchgeneration with state-of-the-art methods perform neighbor selection process in a data-driven manner by K nearest neighbor searching. Hence, the running time for synthesisincreases. Also, for neighbor selection need to check the whole training dataset. As a result, the computational complexity increases with the scale of the training database and is limited scalability. In this paper, we proposed a simple but effective with encoding local binary pattern and random sampling in place of pixels. Then by extracting shape from resulting textures and determining state of surfaces, we represent facial sketch. Our experiments onpair of CUHK database imagesdemonstrate the proposed method in comparison to state-of-the-art methods has superiorityof view generated sketch quality and running time. Also, the proposed methodin front of face hallucinationproblemswhich cause heterogeneous transformation on facial sketch is resistant.

New applications such as 3D graphics, 3D displays, and image-based modeling have made stereo vision an active research area in recent years. In dense disparity map estimation, which is a basic problem in stereo vision, using two left and right images taken from a scene from two different positions, the disparity of each pixel of the reference image is determined (meaning determining each pixel with how displacement is appeared in the other image). Based on the disparity value, the depth of each pixel in scene is simply determined. For dense disparity map estimation, local stereo matching methods are simpler and faster than global methods, and therefore suitable for real time applications. In these methods, defining proper window which aggregate intensity pattern as well as keeping disparity consistency in all the window area, is an important challenge. To overcome this challenge, the idea of directional multiple window has been proposed in the previous researches. On the other hand, local binary patterns have considerable success in pattern recognition applications, while computationally simple. Therefore, the idea of using local binary pattern in a directional multiple window arrangement is proposed for dense stereo matching in this paper. Experimental results on standard stereo images show the better performance of the proposed method with respect to other proposed binary descriptors

Texture classification is one of the important branches of image processing. The main point of texture classification is feature extraction. local binary pattern (LBP) is one of the important methods that are used for texture feature extraction. This method is widely used because it has simple implementation and extracts high discriminative features from textures. Most of previous LBP methods used uniform patterns and only one feature is extracted from non-uniform patterns. In this paper, by extending non-uniform patterns a new mapping technique is proposed that extracts more discriminative features from non-uniform patterns. So in spite of almost all of the previous LBP methods, the proposed method extracts more discriminative features from non-uniform patterns and increases the classification accuracy of textures.The proposed method has all of the positive points of previous LBP variants. It is a rotation invariant and illumination invariant method and increase the classification accuracy. The implementation of proposed mapping on Outex dataset shows that proposed method can improve the accuracy of classifications significantly.

Distinctive and efficient description of image features is an essential task for image registration in photogrammetry and remote sensing. The majority of existing descriptors estimate a dominant orientation parameter for rotation invariant image matching. The dominant orientation assignment is an error-prone process, and it decreases the capability of the descriptors. In this paper, a novel feature descriptor based on the local binary pattern operator named RILBP (Rotation Invariant local binary pattern) is proposed that is inherently rotation invariant. To compute the RILBP descriptor, the pixels in the given image region are divided into several sub-regions based on distance and intensity order constraints. Then, a local binary pattern histogram is generated for each sub-region based on a rotation invariant coordinate system. To increase the descriptor robustness against geometric distortions, a special weighting process based on a combined ring and Gaussian functions is applied. The proposed RILBP descriptor was successfully applied for matching of various remote sensing images as: SPOT 5, ETM+, Sentinel 2, IKONOS, IRS P6 and ZY3 sensors, and the results demonstrate its capability compared to common feature descriptors such as CS-LBP, SIFT, LSS, and MROGH. Compared to the standard CS-LBP descriptor, the RILBP descriptor indicates an average performance improvement of about 25%, 10% and 30%, in terms of Recall, Precision and number of correct matches, respectively.

Background: Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk. Since Panoramic image is a feasible and relatively routine imaging technique in dentistry; it could provide an opportunistic chance for screening osteoporosis. In this regard, numerous panoramic derived indices have been developed and suggested for osteoporosis screening. Jaw trabecular pattern is one of the main bone strength factors and trabecular bone pattern assessment is important factor in bone quality analysis. Texture analysis applied to trabecular bone images offers an ability to exploit the information present on conventional radiographs. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between Jaw trabecular pattern in panoramic image and osteoporosis based on image texture analyzing using local binary pattern. Material and Methods: An experiment is evaluated in this paper based on a real hand-captured database of panoramic radiograph images from osteoporosis and non-osteoporosis person in Namazi Hospital, Shiraz, Iran. An approach is proposed for osteoporosis diagnosis consisting of two steps. First, modified version of local binary patterns is used to extract discriminative features from jaw panoramic radiograph images. Then, classification is done using different classifiers. Results: Comparative results show that the proposed approach provides classification accuracy about 99. 6%, which is higher than many state-of-the-art methods. Conclusion: High classification accuracy, low computational complexity, multiresolution and rotation invariant are among advantages of our proposed approach.

local binary pattern is one of the most popular descriptor that widely used in feature extraction of texture images. Deep convolutional neural network is also one of the best classification methodthat provides very high accuracy. In this research, by combining the features that produced by these two methods, a structure for noisy texture classification is proposed, which provides a very high classification rate. This method is based on two extracted features. The first part uses completed local binary pattern features and in the second part the features of texture images are extracted by using the DenseNet-121 convolution deep neural network. Another motivation of this research related to feature reduction, which significantly reduces the dimensions of extracted features. It employs a shallow convolution neural network to convert the extracted features into lower number of new features. The accuracy of the proposed method has been evaluated on noisy Outex, CUReT and UIUC datasets. The classification accuracy of the proposed method for different level of noise has increased significantly compared to many advanced methods and has improved between 3 and 25%.

Coral reefs are an important part of the tropical shallow water ecosystem and their protection is very important. Classification of coral reef images includes three stages of image enhancement, feature extraction and classification. In this research, by focusing on the feature extraction a method for features extraction for classification of coral corals images is proposed. This method consists of two methods of local binary pattern variants. In addition, instead of using a large neighborhoods, a multi-scale neighborhood with different sizes is used. This method employed a fixed number of points with different size of neighborhoods. This increases the classification accuracy without exponentially increasing the features. By combining the CS_LBP symmetric binary method and the MRELBP median enhanced binary method, some features of the image are merged together, and the local features extracted by the CS_LBP method are reduced by half in each step. In this research, the accuracy of the proposed model has been evaluated on EILAT, EILAT2, RSMAS, and MLC-2008 coral reef image sets. Also a general textures such as CUReT, UIUC, and KTH_TIPS texture are used. The classification accuracy of the proposed method has increased in all recent data, while the number of features extracted is decreased.
