Intrinsic prior for Bayesian classification of texture images
This paper introduces an intrinsic prior distribution for supervised classification of texture images. First, we introduce the intrinsic prior distribution as the normal law on a Riemannian manifold. Next, based on this definition, we derive the estimation and classification schemes. Finally, we propose an application for the classification of texture images. Experiments on the VisTex texture database are conducted and demonstrate the interest of the proposed intrinsic classification algorithm.
