| Abstract: |
Fractal dimension (FD) is an effective measure for complex objects. It is widely applied in the fields of image segmentation and shape recognition. This paper presents a new box-counting method for estimation of fractal dimension of images. Original ideas of the method came from the principles of Differential box-counting (DBC) method. Improvements appear in the approach on partition of image plane and computation of the number of boxes covering the image. The computation results of fractal dimension of simulated images and Brodatz texture images demonstrate the new method is effective and produces a wider range in fractal dimension than the original DBC method. |
