Abstract:

Random pattern generation processes can provide a rich class of models for both the synthesis and analysis of visual textures. This report describes a variety of such processes including point processes, random mosaic processes, and bombing processes. Standard texture analysis approaches e. g., cooccurrence matrices are related to texture models based on these random processes. Examples to several textures synthesized by computer in accordance with these models are presented. Author
