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

OPTIONS
In addition to the options common to all programs based on libnetpbm
(most notably -quiet, see ]8;;index.html#commonoptions\ Common Options]8;;\ ), pgmtexture recognizes the
following command line option:
-d distance
The distance. Default is 1.
LIMITATIONS
The method for finding the Maximal Correlation Coefficient, which re-
quires finding the second largest eigenvalue of a matrix Q, does not al-
ways converge.
