NAME
pgmtexture - calculate textural features on a PGM image
SYNOPSIS
pgmtexture
[-d d]
[pgmfile]
DESCRIPTION
This program is part of Netpbm(1).
pgmtexture reads a PGM image as input and calculates textural features
based on spatial dependence matrices at 0, 45, 90, and 135 degrees for
a distance d (default = 1).
Textural features include:
· Angular Second Moment
· Contrast
· Correlation
· Variance
· Inverse Difference Moment
· Sum Average
· Sum Variance
· Sum Entropy
· Entropy
· Difference Variance
· Difference Entropy
· Information Measures of Correlation
· Maximal Correlation Coefficient

Systems, Man, and Cybertinetics, SMC-3(6):610-621.
LIMITATIONS
The program can run incredibly slow for large images (larger than 64 x
64) and command line options are limited. The method for finding the
Maximal Correlation Coefficient, which requires finding the second
largest eigenvalue of a matrix Q, does not always converge.
