Image Indexing Using Weighted Color Histogram
نویسندگان
چکیده
Image indexing is the process of image retrieval from databases of images or videos based on their contents. Specifically, histogram-based algorithms are considered to be effective for color image indexing. We suggest a new method of color space quantization in the CIELUV color space, named weighted LUV quantization. With this method, each bin in the LUV space has a different weighting factor, which is applied to the histogram intersection. The weighted LUV histogram intersection provides the advantage of perceptual uniformity of the CIELUV color space. An additional advantage is the consideration of perceptual sensitivity to more saturated colors by the use of a weighting factor.

Similarity of Color Images
We describe two new color indexing techniques. The rst one is a more robust version of the commonly used color histogram indexing. In the index we store the cumulative color histograms. The L 1-, L 2-, or L 1-distance between two cumulative color histograms can be used to deene a similarity measure of these two color distributions. We show that while this method produces only slightly better re...
متن کاملFast and Efficient Image Indexing Using Binary Color Histogram
The color histogram has played an important role on pattern recognition, image indexing, and many other applications. One of the major obstacles for applying color histograms is the intimidating storage and computational requirements due to its high dimension nature. In contrast to the conventional multi-valued color histogram, we propose a simplified binary color histogram in the HSV color spa...

Introduction: Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is a method of image searching and retrieval in a database. In medical applications, CBIR is a tool used by physicians to compare the previous and current medical images associated with patients pathological conditions. As the volume of pictorial information stored in medical image databases is in progress, efficient image indexing and retri...
متن کاملGrouping and Indexing Color Features for Efficient Image Retrieval
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) aims at searching image databases for specific images that are similar to a given query image based on matching of features derived from the image content. This paper focuses on a low-dimensional color based indexing technique for achieving efficient and effective retrieval performance. In our approach, the color features are extracted using the mean shift a...
متن کاملColor scene transform between images using Rosenfeld-Kak histogram matching method
In digital color imaging, it is of interest to transform the color scene of an image to the other. Some attempts have been done in this case using, for example, lαβ color space, principal component analysis and recently histogram rescaling method. In this research, a novel method is proposed based on the Resenfeld and Kak histogram matching algorithm. It is suggested that to transform the color...
