Abstract :
The purpose of this article is to describe a new texture retrieval system, which is based on the use of fuzzy logic, neuro-fuzzy networks and morphological operators in the processes of qualitative to quantitative textural properties transformation, color and textural features extraction, features fusion, and feature similarity matching. One important characteristic of the proposed architecture is that it takes into account psychological aspects of texture perception and description
