Analysis of Some Textured Images by Transputer

Abstract

Texture, as a visual perception, can be easily seen by eye and often described without much difficulty. However, textural recognition and measurement by machine is a very different issue and has only recently been developed. In this thesis, a whole set of new algorithms have been developed to analyse textured images with particular reference to the requirements of soil microstructural applications. The new technology of parallel processing is used to implement and improve the complicated computations
