Texture analysis using adaptive biorthogonal wavelet packets

We discuss the use of adaptive biorthogonal wavelet packet bases in a probabilistic approach to texture analysis, thus combining the advantages of biorthogonal wavelets (FIR, linear phase) with those of a coherent texture model. The computation of the probability uses both the primal and dual coefficients of the adapted biorthogonal wavelet packet basis. The computation of the biorthogonal wavelet packet coefficients is done using a lifting scheme, which is very efficient. The model is applied to the classification of mosaics of Brodatz textures, the results showing improvement over the performance of the corresponding orthogonal wavelets.
