Abstract

An image signal analyzing system for analyzing a pattern of an image on the basis of the waveforms of the image signals. The system includes a block extracting section for sampling an image signal and dividing the sampled image signal into input pixel blocks each consisting of m.times.n pixels (m and n are positive integers), a mean value separating section for subtracting a mean value from each pixel in the pixel block, a first analyzing section for analyzing a feature quantity of the direction of the tone variation of a mean-value separated block obtained from the mean value separating section, a second analyzing section for analyzing a feature quantity of the direction of amplitude of the mean-value separated block, and a judging section for judging a feature of waveform of the input pixel block on the basis of the analysis results of the first analyzing section and the second analyzing section.
