Finding repeating patterns/images in images

Question

I\'ve been looking around for some papers (or info) on this topic.

To avoid a misunderstanding: I\'m not talking about finding a supplied pattern in multiple locations.<

Answer 1

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I suggest searching for "Texture based segmentation". Take a look at this bibliography, for example: http://www.visionbib.com/bibliography/segment366.html
