Abstract
An automated method for texture segmentation () of geophysical data volumes, where texture is defined by double-window statistics of data values, the statistics being generated by a smaller pattern window moving around within a larger sampling window (). A measure of 'distance' between two locations is selected based on similarity between the double-window statistics from sampling windows centered at the two locations (). Clustering of locations is then based on distance proximity ().
