Abstract

The marbles consist a large part of the buildings and widely used. Though, the manufacturing process for marbles are time consuming and inefficient: Human experts assign inconsistent labels to different marble classes causing a big loss of time and money. It arises the need for an automatic method of classifying marbles. In this paper we present a novel method which utilizes color, structural and textural representations of a marble. Once the representation is combined with an accurate segmentation step, it achieves an accuracy of 94% on a newly collected dataset of 1000 images. We suggest the best settings for an automatic marble classification system which is simple and fast enough to be used in a real-life environment like marble factories.
