Table 1.

Description of different texture features by gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM).

Textures Description
Mean The Mean is the average grayscale of all pixels for the image.
Variance The Variance stands for the change of grayscale.
Homogeneity The Homogeneity can measure the uniformity of local grayscale for one image. More uniform of the local grayscale means high value of Homogeneity.
Contrast The Contrast stands for the clarity of texture. The higher the contrast value, the clearer the image.
Dissimilarity The Dissimilarity mainly represents for the difference of grayscale.
Entropy The Entropy is the measurement of the information for one image. No texture feature means Entropy value is 0.
Second Moment The Second Moment reflects the uniformity degree of grayscale.
Correlation The Correlation can measure the level of similarity in the row or column direction.
