Abstract: Highlights•A novel LBP-and-LDP-like operator (LDTP) for texture classification is proposed.•A statistical hypothesis testing based optimal values selection technique is proposed.•Performance stability of LDTP over several texture datasets is investigated.•Extensive experiments were conducted on nine challenging texture datasets.•Evaluation with large number of old and recent state-of-the-art methods is performed.
