In the second phase pimple detection, crack detection are done with the help of the segmented image in which threshold value is assigned for particular area, those region with value less than threshold value is selected and the pimple is highlighted. For the color feature extraction intensity filtering method is used in which different intensity in various areas of the tongue are found using the histogram method then the area with similar intensity are selected and the threshold value is set. The final phase is the texture feature extraction in which Local Gabor XOR Pattern (LGXP) is used. The LGXP method makes use of the phase information of each pixel and then the histograms are plotted as the analysis that is made on each method. The research on this method provides 80% efficiency which remains as the satisfactory results, So there is the need to improve the local intensity methods and edge detection algorithm to get better

    After, the color space transformation we are going to extracts the texture vector from that image using sparse texture model. The texture vectors are represented as a set of distributions which is used to cluster the texture data using K-means clustering algorithm. Finding the number of clusters which consists set of texture distributions used to calculate TD metric. After, calculating the TD metric, the image is over segmented using SRM algorithm, which results the image being divided into large number of regions. Next, each region is independently classified as representing normal skin or lesion based on the textural contents of that region.
