Interest Points Detection in Color Images

This paper presents a new interest point detector for color images. It is based on a non linear filtering of the image which preserves edges, and on the use of a color point detector based on the Harris detector. We present how does interest points detectors work to justify the use of this filtering. We compare it with the Harris detector under the criteria of repeatibility, information content and localization accuracy.
