Abstract
Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system for obtaining and processing image features are described. In some embodiments, a Gabor representation of an image may be obtained by using a Gabor filter. A region may be determined from the Gabor representation, wherein the region comprises a plurality of Gabor pixels of the Gabor representation; and, a sub-region may be determined from the region, wherein the sub-region comprises more than one of the plurality of Gabor pixels. Then, a Gabor feature may be calculated based upon a magnitude calculation related to the sub-region and the region.
