Abstract :
The Karhunen-Loeve transform (KLT) is used to perform region-based segmentation of aerial colour images from colour and texture features. A region-based segmentation method is developed in the KL colour image representation space and KLT is extended to texture analysis by local linear transform (LLT). An algorithm to merge colour and texture segmentation is presented in order to improve results
