Texture processing typically involves three fundamental challenges. First, texture segmentation aims to divide an image into regions where each area has a consistent and similar texture. Second, texture synthesis focuses on generating large-scale textures from small sample images, preserving the visual characteristics of the original. Third, texture-based shape recovery deals with determining the surface orientation and geometry based on the texture patterns observed in an image.
First, texture representation
The texture in an image is often made up of repeating, structured elements that follow certain regularities. These patterns can be analyzed and represented using various methods. One common approach is to use a filter bank to extract structural features from the image. The output of these filters is then statistically analyzed to describe the texture effectively.

2. Using statistical properties of filter outputs to represent texture
Second, directional pyramid analysis (and synthesis)
Directional pyramids are widely used in texture analysis due to their ability to capture both spatial and frequency information. This includes:
1. Laplacian pyramid – a multi-scale representation that captures details at different resolutions
2. Filters in the spatial frequency domain – such as Gabor filters that detect oriented textures
3. Directional pyramids – which allow for better handling of textured regions with specific orientations
Third, application: synthetic texture for drawing
Texture synthesis is not only useful for research but also for artistic applications. It allows for the creation of seamless textures that can be used in digital art or computer graphics. Some key techniques include:
1. Ensuring uniformity across the synthesized texture
2. Using local models to guide the sampling process and maintain consistency
Fourth, retrieving shape from texture
One of the most fascinating aspects of texture is its ability to reveal 3D structure. For example, the same texture may appear differently when viewed from the front versus the side due to perspective distortion. This effect causes the texture elements (such as spacing between them) to compress more in one direction than another. By analyzing these changes, we can infer the surface orientation and even reconstruct the planar shape from the texture.
