This article describes a novel approach to orientation and scale-invariant detection of textured objects in images. It performs both, a segmentation of multi-object scenes and the identification of rotation angles and scale rates of textures in an image by applying a comparison with reference texture features stored in a database. The main novelty of the proposed method is the transform of rotation and dilation into shifts in the feature space by employing a polar-log Gabor filter bank. Texture segmentation and identification of the rotation angles and scale rates have been carried out using symmetric phase only matched filters. The simulation results illustrated highlight the performance of the presented method in an exemplary manner.
