  • Abstract
    We present in this paper a new global measure to characterise an image: the compactness vector. This measure considers both object shape and grey level distribution function and does not require any preliminary segmentation. It is invariant to rotation, translation, scale and luminance and is then a powerful tool for image retrieval from a query image. We present here some object retrieval examples from large database images
