Computational autoposiesis for texture analysis

摘要

The theory of Autopoiesis attempts to given an integrated characterization of the nature of the living systems by capturing the key idea that living systems are systems that self-maintain their organization. This theory makes a complementary definition of the concepts of organization and structure of a system. The organization of a system defines its identity as a unity, while the structure determines only an instance of the system organization. In other works, the organization of a system defines its invariant characteristics. In this article the concept of autopoiesis is explored as a tool to analyze the internal organization of a very special kind of systems, which are the images More specifically, a computational model of autopoiesis is applied for texture identification through the use of an autopitetic-agent.
