This package contains MatLab code for analyzing and synthesizingdigital image of visual texture.  The algorithm is described in thereferences given at the bottom of this document.  Further information,as well the most recent versions of the code, are available at    http://www.cns.nyu.edu/~lcv/texture/Incremental changes to the code are documented in the ChangeLog file.Written by Javier Portilla and Eero Simoncelli,  1999-2000.Comments/Suggestions/Bugs to:      javier@decsai.ugr.es    eero.simoncelli@nyu.edu___________________________________________________________________________INSTALLATION1) download and unpack the code.  You can put the code anywhere on   your system, but we'll assume it's in a directory named "textureSynth".2) download and unpack the matlabPyrTools package from          http://www.cns.nyu.edu/~eero/software.html    This is a collection of tools for multi-scale decomposition of   images.  You can put the code anywhere on your system, but we'll   assume it's in a directory named "matlabPyrTools".3) Run matlab, and put the matlabPyrTools directory in your path:   > path('matlabPyrTools', path);4) Both the textureSynth and matlabPyrTools distributions include a MEX subdirectory    containing binary executables, precompiled for various platforms   (SunOS,Solaris,Linux,Windows).  You may need to recompile these on   your platform.  In addition, you should either move the relavent files from the    MEX subdirectory into the main directory, OR create a link/alias to them,   OR place the MEX subdirectory in your matlab path.___________________________________________________________________________USING THE SOFTWARE- To see a demonstration, start Matlab, change directories (using  "cd") into the textureSynth directory, and execute "example1"  (without the quotations).  - If you want to learn how to use the texture analysis and synthesis  functions, take a look at example1.m and example2.m (these include  many explanatory comments).- For a listing of matlab function included in this package, execute      "help textureSynth"- For details on any of the functions, execute "help <name_of_function>"___________________________________________________________________________REFERENCESJ Portilla and E P Simoncelli.
