摘要
This paper introduces the principles of using color histogram to match images in CBIR. And a prototype CBIR system is designed with color matching function. A new method using 2-dimensional color histogram based on hue and saturation to extract and represent color information of an image is presented. We also improve the Euclidean-distance algorithm by adding Center of Color to it. The experiment shows modifications made to Euclidean-distance signif-icantly elevate the quality and efficiency of retrieval.
