We propose a new image retrieval method based on human perceptual clustering of color images. This color clustering produces for each image a small set of representative colors wh...
The two major problems raised by a region-based image retrieval system are the automatic definition and description of regions. In this paper we first present a technique of unsup...
A conventional color histogram (CCH) considers neither the color similarity across different bins nor the color dissimilarity in the same bin. Therefore, it is sensitive to noisy i...
In this paper, we investigate the use of 3D surface geometry for face recognition and compare it to one based on color map information. The 3D surface and color map data are from ...
In content based image retrieval, color indexing is one of the most prevalent retrieval methods. In literature, most of the attention has been focussed on the color model with lit...
