It is considered a method of computer aided analysis of textures in biomedical images. The method is based on a hierarchy of simple combinatorial tests applied to squareform sub-images on several levels of image analysis. The tests are obtained as a result of combinations of two basic transformations of the original image: restructing and selection. The results of tests are then collected into numerical multi-component vectors and an analysis of vectors similarity is performed. On the basis of evaluated similarity measures a procedure of merging sub-windows covered by similar textures into compact and homogenous segments can be performed. The method is, in particular, oriented to a computer-aided analysis of textures representing micro-vascular systems.
