Abstract A texture segmentation algorithm based on Local Walsh transform is presented. For each pixel in the texture images, the local Walsh transform coefficients are computed, and their 2nd, 4th and 6th order moments are estimated as the texture features of that pixel. Then all the pixels are clustered by fuzzy Cmeans algorithm. Experimental results of texture segmentation are fine.
