Kris Popat and Rosalind W. Picard,

IEEE Transactions on Image Processing,
6, 2, pp. 268-284, February 1997.We develop, analyze, and apply a specific form of mixture modeling for density estimation, within the context of image and texture processing. The technique captures much of the higher-order, nonlinear statistical relationships present among vector elements by combining aspects of kernel estimation and cluster analysis. Experimental results presented in the following applications: image restoration, image and texture compression, and texture classification.
