While the final aim is preparing an application, which is capable of visual signal processing and classification, in this paper we present a new oak leaf dataset and preliminary results for classification of 8 types of oak trees. The novelties include comparative analysis of a small set of hand-crafted geometric features and popularly used high-dimensional appearance features, such as Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG). We further compare commonly used Support Vector Machines (SVM) classifier with a recently popular, fast and robust learner called Extreme Learning Machines (ELM). Results indicate that a small set of geometric features reach an accuracy of 75%, while high dimensional appearance features can boost the performance up to92%.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessClassificaitonLBPHOGExtreme Learning Machines (ELM)Extreme Learning-MachineConference ObjectN/AWOS:0004914302000572-s2.0-85068570413
