The two groups of popularly used texture analysis techniques for classification problems are the statistical and signal processing methods. In this paper, we propose to use a signal processing method, the Gabor filters to produce the feature images, and a statistical method, the covariance matrix to produce a set of features which show the statistical information of frequency domain. The experiments are conducted on 32 textures from the Brodatz texture dataset. The result that is obtained for the use of 24 Gabor filters to generate a 24 × 24 covariance matrix is 91.86%. The experiment results show that the use of Gabor filters as the feature image is better than the use of edge information and co-occurrence matrices. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
