Extension Description

Logo BoneTextureExtension

This extensions contain several modules that can be used to compute feature maps of N-Dimensional images using two well-known texture analysis methods: the study of Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and the study of Grey Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM). The main algorithms used in this extension are part of a remote module of ITK called itkTextureFeatures

Key Features:

• Estimated texture features:
  • 8 co-occurrence textural features: energy, entropy, correlation, inverse difference moment, inertia, cluster shade, cluster prominence and Haralick correlation
  • 10 run length textural features: short run emphasis, long run emphasis, grey level non uniformity, run length non uniformity, low grey level run emphasis, high grey level run emphasis, short run low grey level emphasis, short run high grey level emphasis, long run low grey level emphasis and long run high grey level emphasis.
• Input configurable parameters: locality of the texture, offset directions for co-occurrence and run length computation, the number of bins for the intensity histograms, and the intensity range or the range of run lengths.")
