Abstract
In this paper, we will discuss a technique of texture image classification using a wavelet decomposition with selective wavelet packet node decomposition. This new approach uses a two-channel wavelet decomposition which is extended to two dimensions. Using the strength as a metric, selective wavelet decomposition is controlled. The metric is used to allow further decomposition or to terminate recursive decompositions. Decision of continuing further decompositions is based on each subband's strength with respect to the strengths of other subbands of the same wavelet decomposition level. Once the decompositions stop, the structure of the packet is stored in a data structure. Using the information from the data structure, dominating channels are extracted. These are defined as paths from the root of the packet to the leaf with the highest strengths. The list of dominating channels are used to train a learning vector quantization neural network.
