Sample based texture synthesis allows the generation of arbitrarily sized textures based on a small sample image. One main drawback of the technique is that a new pixel or patch is selected only considering local information in the generated texture. Thus structural error can?t assure to be avoided for structural textures. To accelerate texture synthesis process and to avoid structural mismatch in the output picture, we present in this paper a structural pattern analysis (SPA) algorithm and a texture synthesis method using the algorithm. The pattern analysis tool also quantizes the texture randomness in macro scope view. It can be used in other applications such as automatic texture classification and quality evaluation of synthesized texture. We illustrate our result with some examples.
