Image processing method and apparatus, and storage medium

An apparatus, wherein the apparatus is implemented using a neural network executing in a processor, and the apparatus comprises:

• the processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
• obtain a dependency relationship between features of texture primitives of an image based on direction information and a multi-scale feature map of the image, wherein the multi-scale feature map comprises features of a plurality of texture primitives of the image on a plurality of different scales, and the direction information comprises one or more directions;
• obtain at least one group of texture features of the image based on a feature map of the image on at least one scale of the plurality of different scales, wherein the at least one group of texture features of the image is obtained based on the feature map of the image on the at least one scale;
• and obtain a texture representation result of the image based on the dependency relationship and the at least one group of texture features;
• and
• wherein the processor is further configured to process the image based on the texture representation result of the image.

An image processing apparatus, comprising:

• an interface circuit, configured to receive data of a to-be-processed image;
• and
• a processor, connected to the interface circuit, and configured to perform the following method:
• obtaining a dependency relationship between features of texture primitives of an image based on direction information and a multi-scale feature map of the image, wherein the multi-scale feature map comprises features of a plurality of texture primitives of the image on a plurality of different scales, and the direction information comprises one or more directions;
• obtaining at least one group of texture features of the image based on a feature map of the image on at least one scale of the plurality of different scales, wherein the at least one group of texture features of the image is obtained based on the feature map of the image on the at least one scale;
• obtaining a texture representation result of the image based on the dependency relationship and the at least one group of texture features;
• and
• processing the image based on the texture representation result of the image.
