Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is a common problem in all cities worldwide; it is expected to increase to 3400 billion tons by 2050. In Mexico, an average of 108,146 tons of MSW are generated daily. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a computer tool that allows the development of systems that facilitate the recycling process. However, most AI programs focus on classifying paper, plastic, glass and metal; therefore, wood and textile waste have received little attention. Using texture techniques such as Local Binary Pattern (LBP), Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG), Canny/Sobel edge detection, Fractal Dimension (FD), feature values were extracted and integrated from 4396 images belonging to wood and textile categories. Using the Random Forest Importance method, the most significant features were selected to train three Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) achieved the best performance in accuracy with 96.70%, followed by Random Forest (RF) at 95.45% and Support Vector Machine (SVM) with 95.22%. The implementation of these comparisons will serve as a basis for the development of new technological tools with low computational cost that carry out a proper waste separation.
