ABSTRACT Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) is a non-invasive method of
examination which can be used to document and visualize the surface texture of objects …

Texture characterization of photographic prints can provide scholars with valuable
information regarding photographers? aesthetic intentions and working practices. Currently …

Surface texture is a critical feature in the manufacture, marketing, and use of photographic
paper. Raking light reveals texture through a stark rendering of highlights and shadows …

The characterization and estimation of the Hölder regularity of random fields has long been
an important topic of Probability theory and Statistics. This notion of regularity has also been …

An image processing algorithm for photographic and inkjet paper texture classification is
developed based on area-scale fractal analysis. This analysis has been applied in surface …

Identifying, comparing, and matching watermarks in pre-machine-made papers has
occupied scholars of prints and drawings for some time. One popular but arduous approach …

Wove paper, made on a papermaking screen or mold having a surface of smooth tightly
woven wires, was the predominant paper type used for printing in the twentieth century. To …

In this paper, we tackle the problem of texture classification with a local approach based on
measuring second order deviations with respect to a dictionary of characteristic patterns. At …

This paper investigates the classification of photographic paper textures using visual
descriptors. Such classification is called fine grain due to the very low inter-class variability …

Photographic paper texture characterization constitutes a challenging image processing
task and an important stake both for manufacturers and art museums. The present …
