This paper proposes four sets of edge-texture features, those are; Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Local Ternary Pattern (LTP),
Discriminative Robust Local Binary Pattern (DRLBP) and Ternary Pattern (DRLTP), for object recognition. By investigating the
limitations of Local Binary Pattern (LBP), and Local Ternary Pattern (LTP) DRLBP and DRLTP are proposed as new features.
They solve the problem of discrimination between a bright object against a dark background and vice-versa inherent in LBP and
LTP. DRLBP also resolves the problem of RLBP whereby LBP codes and their complements in the same block are mapped to the
same code. Furthermore, the proposed features retain contrast information necessary for proper representation of object contours
that LBP, LTP, and RLBP discard.
