► Structure elements’ descriptor (SED), a novel texture descriptor, is proposed. ► The image local features can effectively represented by SED. ► SED can extracting and describing color and texture features simultaneously. ► The image’s structure elements’ histogram (SEH) is proposed and computed by...
