5 CONCLUSION 
In this paper we have shown how to apply genetic algorithm in deciding MRF parameters and use these parameters to 
classify texture images. Experiment results show the effectiveness and practicality to apply genetic algorithm in texture 
classification. Further work needs to be carried out in combining the MRF parameters decided by GA with other texture 
features to improve the recognition rate further.
