Abstract

Rotation invariant texture descriptor plays an important role in texture-based object classification. However the classification accuracy may decrease due to the inconsistent performance of texture descriptor with respect to various rotated angles. In this paper we propose a consistent rotation invariant texture descriptor named Sorted Neighborhood Differences (SND). SND is derived from the integration of sorted neighborhood and binary patterns. Experimental results show that overall texture classification accuracy of SND with respect to different rotations using OUTEX TC 0010 texture database is 91.81% whereas those of LBPriu and LBP-HF are 86.42% and 88.28%, respectively. The texture and coin classification accuracies of SND are also consistent in various rotation angles and illumination levels.
