In this paper, fractal transforms are employed with the aim of image recognition. It is known that such transforms are highly sensitive to distortions like a small shift of an image. However, by using features based on statistics kept during the actual decomposition we can derive features from fractal …

In contemporary image databases one finds many images with the same image content but perturbed by zooming, scaling, rotation etc. For the purpose of image recognition in such databases we employ features based on statistics stemming from fractal transforms gray-scale images. We show how the features …
