Abstract
Two extended patterns, direction local binary pattern (D-LBP) and variance direction local binary pattern (vD-LBP) were introduced in the paper. More texture features are obtained in the new operators by introducing a variant threshold. The descriptors mentioned in the paper were firstly tested and evaluated on CUReT texture image database. Experimental results show that the two extended operators give better performance than D-LBP and vD-LBP respectively. Finally, the operators were used for trace fossils image retrieval and the results denote that the proposed operator, tvD-LBP is the most effective method for trace fossils image description in the four descriptors.
