This paper describes a method for colour texture analysis, which performs segmentation based on colour and texture information. The main goal of this approach is to examine the contribution of chromaticity features in the analysis of texture. Local binary pattern and discrete cosine transform are the techniques utilised as a tool to perform feature extraction. Segmentation is carried out based on an unsupervised texture segmentation method. The performance of the method is evaluated using dierent chromaticity features and also using the ROC curves. The results indicate that the inclusion of colour information improves the segmentation performance.
