On the Anisotropy of Images. A Brief Note
Journal Title: Memoirs of the Scientific Sections - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Many physical systems, known as highly dependent on direction, are called anisotropic. Anisotropy is characterized by different properties, measured along each axis in different directions. For understanding physical phenomena, a model of anisotropic materials is useful. Patterns of the anisotropy of images with heterogeneities and anisotropies offer significant information, to be used for image analysis. The literature of the field provides numerous definitions for the anisotropy of images. This article provides a brief presentation of the different approaches applied for the definition of the anisotropy of images, as well as a critical discussion of one of these methods.
