ABSTRACT:
Image content classification methods, systems and computer programs repeatedly scan an image having an array of image pixels, with at least one random neural network. Each scan corresponds to one of multiple texture patterns. A corresponding texture pattern is compared to each of multiple image portions for each of the multiple scans. A value is assigned to each image portion, corresponding to the texture pattern having the highest coincidence. An array of pixels corresponding to the assigned values for the image portions may then be displayed. Highly accurate results may be obtained, at high speed, without the need for lengthy expert analysis.
