Abstract :
In this paper we analyze the problem of image databases categorization using a statistical generative model. Our model is based on the multinomial generalized Dirichlet distribution recently introduced to model discrete data. The model integrates also the spatial information with color histograms. We designed experiments to show the merits of our model.
