What Wikipedia says

In image processing, a Gabor filter, named after Dennis Gabor, who first proposed it as a 1D filter, is a linear filter used for texture analysis, which essentially means that it analyzes whether there is any specific frequency content in the image in specific directions in a localized region around the point or region of analysis.
