1. A computer-implemented method for processing images having texture, the method comprising:

  • Using a processor to perform the following steps;

    identifying similar texture regions in a video sequence;

    extracting texture from the similar texture regions to obtain a video sequence with the texture removed and texture parameters wherein a resulting video sequence with texture extracted is represented by an equation in which a first background region is unmodified and a second background region is modified by texture extraction, wherein the texture parameters are represented by a reference value C*, which represents an extracted texture and a color; and

    encoding the video sequence with the texture removed.
