1. INTRODUCTION
Image segmentation is a primary course in several computer vision applications. It divides an image into numerous components, which preferably correspond to Volume 1, Issue 4 November - December 2012
real-world objects. Region-based image segmentation is an approach to image segmentation, in which an image is divided into associated regions by aligning adjoining pixels of analogous features, and closest regions are then combined beneath some standard for instance the homogeneity of features in adjoining regions. Interesting features comprise texture, color, shape, etc. To attain fine-grain segmentation at the pixel point, we ought to be capable to describe features for instance color and texture on a per-pixel basis. Selling with information removed from a natural image, satellite data, a medical scan or a frame in a video series is the principle of image examination. In the genuine world, the incentive that is established by the image object is alleged as complete and absolute information. The purpose of segmentation methods is to establish a separation of an image into a restricted number of semantically significant regions for instance anatomical or practical structures in medical images or objects in natural images. The segmentation job has been considered for numerous decades; though it is still a demanding job. This task is necessary in several applications counting face recognition in video sequences, changes recognition in satellite images, anatomical or functional object taking out in medical images or object extraction in natural images. The assortment of processes concerned in the visual observation is frequently classified as either low level vision or high level vision. High level vision comprises of the elucidation of the image subsequent to some earlier knowledge. In low level vision, image processing is achieved to dig out some observable physical properties in the image such as shape and margins or to progress the feature of the image. A general segmentation technique, which executes fine in several contexts, does not subsist. The techniques usually reliant on: The processing of the image: richness in textures with diverse orientations and/or scales, unclear conversions among regions, occulted contours, etc.,

2. LITERATURE REVIEW
Texture feature is a technique about association between the pixels in restricted area, dazzling the amends of image whole gray levels. The paper [1] presented a texture feature taking out system supported on local average binary gray point dissimilarity co-occurrence matrix, which shared the texture structural study method with geometric method. Initially, we determine the standard binary gray level distinction of eight-neighbors of a pixel to obtain the standard binary gray point distinction image which conveys the deviation prototype of the provincial gray levels. A key characteristic of semantic image segmentation is to incorporate restricted and universal features for the calculation of limited segment labels. The paper presented an approach [2] to multi-class segmentation which unites two techniques for this combination: a Conditional Random Field (CRF) which pairs to restricted image features and image categorization method judges universal features. A technique of regionbased image segmentation [3] with mean-shift clustering algorithm is commenced. This technique initially mines texture, color, and position features from every pixel to figure aspect vector by choosing proper color space. Then, these feature vectors are grouping with mean-shift clustering algorithm. To discover the diverse textures in an image, an undemanding approach is to execute texture dimensions on a poignant window and disperse scalar features to the entire image pixels equivalent to window centers. Three new texture skin textures for image processing are presented supported on gray level shell and compared in [4]. Image categorization is the most significant step for image examination. Classification is a computational system that divides the images into sets consistent with their features that mined. Classification acts as a vast position in the medical image diagnosis. In case of DICOM images [5] it is very dangerous for finest Volume 1, Issue 4 November - December 2012
3. PROPOSED INTEGRATING IMAGE SEGMENTATION AND CLASSIFICATION FOR NATURAL AND AERIAL IMAGES
The proposed work is efficiently designed for integrating the image segmentation and classification using texture primitives. The proposed integrating image segmentation and classification for natural and aerial images is processed under three different phases. The first phase describes the process of image segmentation using multitude texture local drawing out process. After segmentation is done, the classification of image is done by the adaptation of texture primitives is described in the second phase. The third phase describes the process of extraction of requisite information of the image from the user. The architecture diagram of the proposed integrating image segmentation and classification for natural and aerial images (IISCTP) is shown in fig 3.1.

It is a possession of regions, and comprises of sub-patterns which are connected to the pixel allocation in a region. So texture is a relative possessions and its description must engage gray values in a spatial neighborhoods. Texture Volume 1, Issue 4 November - December 2012

In the fig 3.3, the texture primitive values are extracted in terms of local height, shade and indication which retorts over a set of images with diplomat perspectives and illumination. After extracting the texture primitives, the classification of image is done by constructing TSBN. The shaded parts of the classified image indicate the observable parts of the image and white node symbolizes the hidden variables of the classified image.

Multitudes of Texture Pixels Texture coordinate C between two pixels C0 and C1 is given by C (1 )C 0 C1 _____________ (eqn 4) Using the above formulations, the process of the image segmentation is done efficiently. Our multitude regionbased method usually works as follows: the training image is further divided into regions by way of grouping the neighboring pixels that has the similar intensity ranges. The regions that are adjacent to the pixels are then merged based on some criterion such as the RGB value or the alpha distribution value obtained. Texture extraction is the identification of regions based on their texture. We have also shown that the texture extracted can also be used for certain tasks such as region segregation and region outliers. The texture extracted in applied for multitude of texture pixels with the function Multi Texture. The resultant image obtained is the segmented image. 3.2 Segmented image classification using texture primitives In this paper, texture class T is represented with a TSBN (tree-structured belief network) identified over viewpoints V and illumination I. TSBNs are geometric representations in computer vision and image processing [13]. The TSBN of an image comprises of concealed and evident random variables planned in the similar structure as that of the analogous segmentation tree of the image. Observables are the characteristic vectors of statistical and photometric properties of the analogous regions in the segmentation tree, and are commonly self-sufficient specified their consequent concealed variables. Hidden variables are specified as the texture primitives, expressed Volume 1, Issue 4 November - December 2012 Fig 3.4 Process of classification of segmented image using TSBN The TSBN is entirely expressed by its joint allocation of hidden, A= {ai}, and observable, B = {bi} random variables, iT , where i specifies a node in the segmentation tree T . A hidden variable, ai, specifies the marker of a texture primitive. The marker of node i is hardened on the marker of its parent j, and is expressed by the conditional prospect, P (ai |aj). The combined possibility of A of a specified texture class T is expressed as P ( A | T , V , I ) i , jT P (a i | a j , T , V , I ) eqn 5 Where for the roots, we use priors P ( ai | T , V , I ) . As the observables bi is provisionally self-sufficient specified the analogous ai, the joint possibility of B can be expressed as P( B | A, T , V , I ) iT P(bi | a i k , T , V , I ) eqn 6 Where P (bi | a i k ) is represented as the Gaussian distribution with constraints programmed in the texture primitive k. It pursues that the TSBN for texture T and imaging parameters V and I is exemplified by

4. EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION
The experimentation conducted on Natural images to evaluate the performance of proposed integrating image segmentationa nd classification using texture primitives. Implementation of the proposed algorithm is done in MATLAB. In addition to noise removal, the proposed model also present qualitative results for the texture extraction of the natural image edges. The localization accuracy of natural surface detection technique and evaluating the precision of determining virtual inner layers of separation is a clinically relevant task for which the system uses 2D imaging. The datasets used here are segmented homogeneous region, number of images and number of pixels in segmented region. The experimentation presented here gives a specify homogeneity criteria and produce the homogeneous region, and merging the neighboring regions, which have similar intensity values. During the segmentation step, much estimation was completed: degree of resemblance of 15, 20, 30 and 35, and minimum area of 40 and 50 pixels. The disintegration level measured sufficient to the lessons was, degree of resemblance 40 and minimum area of 45 pixels. After description of these thresholds, a segmented image was formed to ensure if the disintegration level was sufficient or not to the balance used and the authenticity.

Where tp, fp, and fn are true positives, false positives, and false negative, correspondingly. Based on the number of pixels in image, the segmentation of the image is done. Even the number of pixels increases, the segmentation accuracy in the proposed integrating image segmentation and classification using texture primitives is high. Since the proposed IISCTP followed the multitude regional texture extraction scheme, the segmentation is done absed on the extarction of texture feature and it is being processed well. Compared to the previous works hybrid methodology, Multitude Regional Texture Extraction for Image Segmentation (MRTE) and existing seeded region growing model (SRGM) which concentrates only on the image segmentation, the proposed integrating image segmentationa nd classification using texture primitives performed segmentation well and accuracy achives 90%.

Fig 5.3 Segmented parts of image vs. time consumption Fig 5.3 describes the consumption of time to perform the integration of image classification and segmentation based on the aerial and natural images. The time consumption is measured based on the time taken to evaluate the segmentation and the time needed to determine the classification. So, the time consumption is measured as the total time taken to perform the classification of the given aerial and natural images. The time consumption is measured in terms of seconds. In the proposed IISCTP, the consumption of time to perform the appropriate operation is less compared to the previous works hybrid methodology, Multitude Regional Texture Extraction for Image Segmentation (MRTE) and existing seeded region growing model (SRGM).

Fig 5.4 No. of texture primitives vs. recognition rate Fig 5.4 describes the recognition rate of the given natural and aerial images based on texture primitives. Even the global recognition rate rises as the number of training images per class develops into better, where, fascinatingly, ours is better than the one stated for a training set. This recommends that the proposed IISCTP are accomplished by confining more considerable information from a few training images. Compared to the previous works hybrid methodology, Multitude Regional Texture Extraction for Image Segmentation (MRTE) and existing seeded region growing model (SRGM) which concentrates only on the image segmentation, the proposed integrating image segmentation and classification using texture primitives has high recognition rate and the avriance is 80-85% high in the proposed IISCTP.
6. CONCLUSION

First the image is segmented and then, using non-supervised and supervised classification techniques, the image is classified was a comparative examination among the pixel-per-pixel and the region classification. The proposed integrating image segmentationa nd classification using texture primitives consumes less effort by the user to attain the exact classification on homogeneous spectral regions. Thats as there isnt essential a huge number of samples, saving computation time. The areas acquired with the segmentation method using region-growing algorithm, illustrated enhanced results than the pixel classification. Concluding that, we can judge the universal results illustrated by utilizing region classification were acceptable.
