Multiresolution grayscale and rotation invariant texture classification with Local Binary Patterns (LBPs) have proven to be a very powerful texture feature. In this paper we perform a study aiming to improve the performance of the automated classification of settlement type in high resolution imagery over urban areas.

The results showed that the joint distribution of these orthogonal measures improve performance over urban settlement type classification. This shows that variance measure (contrast) is an important property when classifying settlement types in urban areas.enImage texturesRemotely sensed imagesHigh resolution imageryQuickbird imagesUrban area multiresolution analysisConference PresentationMdakane, L., & Van den Bergh, F.
