Abstract :
A novel image retrieval method using color-spatial histograms is presented in this paper. The new method contains three phases. First, we quantize the color space by Gaussian mixture model. Second, the color-spatial histograms generated for both the query image and the images in the database based on the quantized color components and the improved spatiogram method. Finally, using color-spatial histogram as features, we compare the query image with images in the database by Jensen-Shannon divergence. Our proposed method´s availability is demonstrated by the experimental assessment on the COREL image database.
