Gabor Image Texture Feature Extraction

Gabor wavelets closely resemble the visual stimulus responses of simple cells in human visual systems. They exhibit excellent properties for extracting local spatial and frequency domain information of targets. Although Gabor wavelets themselves don't form orthogonal bases, they can constitute tight frames under specific parameters. Gabor wavelets show sensitivity to image edges while providing excellent directional and scale selection characteristics. They remain robust against illumination variations, offering strong adaptability to lighting changes.
