Abstract

Color is one of the most widely used features for image similarity retrieval. Most of the existing image similarity retrieval schemes employ either global or local color histogramming. In this paper, we explore the use of localized dominant hue and saturation values for color-based image similarity retrieval. This scheme results in a relatively compact representation of color images for similarity retrieval. Experimental results comparing the proposed representation with global and local color histogramming are presented to show the efficacy of the suggested scheme.
