- Abstract
- In this paper, we propose a composite histogram for image indexing and retrieval. The histogram represents the composition of edge and luminance features as well as colors in images. As a result of combining the different features of the image together, we can reduce the size of the histogram drastically without degrading the retrieval performance. Since the proposed histogram contains only 14 bins, it has great advantage in terms of memory and computational complexity in the image retrieval. Experimental results show that the proposed histogram with 14 bins yields better retrieval performance than the RGB color histogram with 256 bins and the HSV color histogram with 166 bins.
