Zusammenfassung:Morphology component analysis provides an effective framework for structure-texture image decomposition, which characterizes the structure and texture components by sparsifying them with certain transforms respectively. Due to the complexity and randomness of texture, it is challenging to design effective sparsifying transforms for texture components. This paper aims at exploiting the recurrence of texture patterns, one important property of texture, to develop a nonlocal transform for texture component sparsification. Since the plain patch recurrence holds for both cartoon contours and texture regions, the nonlocal sparsifying transform constructed based on such patch recurrence sparsifies both the structure and texture components well. As a result, cartoon contours could be wrongly assigned to the texture component, yielding ambiguity in decomposition. To address this issue, we introduce a discriminative prior on patch recurrence, that the spatial arrangement of recurrent patches in texture regions exhibits isotropic structure which differs from that of cartoon contours. Based on the prior, a nonlocal transform is constructed which only sparsifies texture regions well. Incorporating the constructed transform into morphology component analysis, we propose an effective approach for structure-texture decomposition. Extensive experiments have demonstrated the superior performance of our approach over existing ones
