Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Texture analysis plays an important role in many image processing and computer vision tasks, ranging from natural to medical imaging and content-based image retrieval. In this paper, we present an efficient Bayesian algorithm for texture image classification and retrieval, based on Reversible Jump Markov Chain Monte Carlo (RJMCMC) and general Beta mixture models. Our work is motivated by the fact that textured images are generally described by non-Gaussian characteristics which cannot be realistically modeled using rigid distributions. Beta mixtures are able to fit any unknown distributional shape and then can be considered as a useful and flexible solution for the problem of modeling non-Gaussian features present in texture images. In theory, it is well-known that full Bayesian approaches, to handle the mixture estimation and selection problems, are fully optimal. We applied then a fully Bayesian, RJMCMC, technique which simultaneously allows cluster assignments, parameters estimation, and the selection of the optimal number of clusters. Experimental results involving a challenging texture images data set are presented and discussed to show the merits of the proposed work.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
