General global features

  

edgefr Calculate edge frequency of the image
-in <image> input image
-fout <result> result field
[-d <dist>] distance
fractald Calculate fractal based features from the image
-in <image> input image
-dout <result> result data frame
[-pnts <points>] number of points used

These commands calculate some features directly from the image. Command edgefr gives out a field containing one scalar. Command fractald gives data frame containing three fields: H, s and res. Length of each field is one. H is the angular coefficient of the fitted line, s the constant and res tells the residual of the points in the logarithmic space. (H is linearly related to fractal dimension.)
