In this paper, a new notion called Morphological Gradient Texture Spectrum (MGTS) is proposed for texture analysis and classification. The MGTS is used as a discriminating tool in texture analysis and classification. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method in the discrimination of textures, we perform a supervised classification procedure to classify texture images extracted from Brodatz's album. A simple measure is defined to determine the distance between two MGTS. Promising results indicate that our method is efficient in texture classification. We also evaluate two basic texture features, namely, coarseness and directionality from the MGTS for visual-perceptual feature extraction.
