Table 3.

GLCM texture parameters [30] where (i): reference cell in the co-occurrence matrix; (j): neighbor cell in the co-occurrence matrix; Pij: GLCM expressed as a probability of having a pair of cell values with a specific value in a specific spatial relationship, µ: mean and σ: standard deviation within GLCM in the specified window size.

Texture Measures Formula Explanation
Entropy ∑ − ln(Pij) Pij Smaller Pij leads to higher entropy value
Contrast ∑Pij (i − j)2 Express difference as an exponential function
Variance ∑Pij (i − µi)2 Describe the variance of GLCM values
Correlation ∑Pij [(i − µi) (j − µi)/σ2] Describe the correlation of GLCM values
Mean ∑Pij/N Describe the mean of the GLCM values
Homogeneity ∑Pij/(1 + (i − j))2 Express difference as an inversed exponential function
Dissymmetry ∑(∑(|i − j| Pij)) Express difference as a linear function
Second moment ∑(∑(Pij)2) Return the max value when all pixels are identical
