OTB wrapper for calculating Haralick's simple, advanced and higher order texture features on every pixel in each channel of the input image

  path_output = NULL,
  return_raster = FALSE,
  parameters.xyrad = list(c(1, 1)),

`x`	A `Raster*` object or a GeoTiff containing one or more gray value bands
`texture`	type of filter "all" for all, alternative one of "simple" "advanced" "higher"
`output_name`	string pattern vor individual naming of the output file(s)
`path_output`	path outut
`return_raster`	boolean if TRUE a raster stack is returned
`parameters.xyrad`	list with the x and y radius in pixel indicating the kernel sizes for which the textures are calculated
`parameters.xyoff`	vector containg the directional offsets. Valid combinations are: list(c(1,1),c(1,0),c(0,1),c(1,-1))
`parameters.minmax`	minimum/maximum gray value which can occur.
`parameters.nbbin`	number of gray level bins (classes)
`channel`	sequence of bands to be processed
`verbose`	switch for system messages default is FALSE
`otbLinks`	list. of OTB tools cli pathes
`ram`	reserved memory in MB

More information at: texture tutorial Keep in mind that:
Homogeneity is correlated with Contrast, r = -0.80
Homogeneity is correlated with Dissimilarity, r = -0.95
GLCM Variance is correlated with Contrast, r= 0.89
GLCM Variance is correlated with Dissimilarity, r= 0.91
GLCM Variance is correlated with Homogeneity, r= -0.83
Entropy is correlated with ASM, r= -0.87
GLCM Mean and Correlation are more independent. For the same image, GLCM Mean shows r< 0.1 with any of the other texture measures demonstrated in this tutorial. GLCM Correlation shows r<0.5 with any other measure. for a review of a lot of feature extraction algorithms look at: Williams et al, 2012, J. of Electronic Imaging, 21(2), 023016 (2012)
glcm <-> haralick "mean" <-> "advanced 1", "variance" <-> "advanced 2", "homogeneity" <-> "simple 4", "contrast"<-> "simple 5", "dissimilarity" <-> "advanced 2", "entropy" <-> "simple 2", "second_moment"<-> "simple 4", "correlation" <-> "simple 3" Furthermore using stats will cover mean and variance while dissimilarity is highly correlated to homogeneity data.

"simple":
computes the following 8 local Haralick textures features: Energy, Entropy, Correlation, Inverse Difference Moment, Inertia, Cluster Shade, Cluster Prominence and Haralick Correlation. They are provided in this exact order in the output image. Thus, this application computes the following Haralick textures over a neighborhood with user defined radius.
To improve the speed of computation, a variant of Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM) called Grey Level Co-occurrence Indexed List (GLCIL) is used. Given below is the mathematical explanation on the computation of each textures. Here g( i,j) is the frequency of element in the GLCIL whose index is i,j. GLCIL stores a pair of frequency of two pixels from the given offset and the cell index (i,j) of the pixel in the neighborhood window. Where each element in GLCIL is a pair of pixel index and it's frequency, g(i,j) is the frequency value of the pair having index is i,j.

"advanced":
computes the following 10 texture features: Mean, Variance, Dissimilarity, Sum Average, Sum Variance, Sum Entropy, Difference of Entropies, Difference of Variances, IC1 and IC2. They are provided in this exact order in the output image. The textures are computed over a sliding window with user defined radius.
