Abstract :
This article provides a color-based image retrieval technique for RGB image databases. Our proposed CBIR system uses the query by example approach and a relevance feedback mechanism. Feature extraction process is performed by computing a global color histogram for each image. Feature vectors are compared using the histogram intersection difference metric, and a relevance feedback mechanism is used in the retrieval process.
