Texture analysis of tissue samples using APDTOCS with color components

The aim of this paper is to apply approximated path distance transform on curved space (APDTOCS) to color images of human tissue samples. Standard DTOCS was used as a reference method. APDTOCS reveals more detail than standard DTOCS especially in parts of the image where the texture is complex and has a lot of small details. APDTOCS is faster and simpler to implement than DTOCS.
