Abstract

In this paper, intuitionistic fuzzy local binary for texture feature extraction has been proposed to encode local texture from the input image. The proposed method extends the fuzzy local binary pattern approach by incorporating intuitionistic fuzzy sets in the representation of local patterns of texture in images. Intuitionistic fuzzy local binary pattern also contributes to more than one bin in the distribution of IFLBP values, which can further be used as a feature vector in the various fields of image processing. The performance of the proposed method has been demonstrated on various medical images and processing images of size 256×256. The obtained results validated the effectiveness and usefulness of our proposed method over the other reported methods, and new improvements are suggested.
