ABSTRACT:
The similarity between zones which consist of one or plural pixels in an original image is measured, the similarity between the measured zones and the threshold of the similarity for integrating the zones consisting of one or plural pixels in the original image are received, and the original image is divided to make the similarity between respective zones lower than the threshold. The size of the zone-divided image for the image index is determined to make the number of total zones of the current divided image equal to the number of zones to be finally divided as an index. Attribute information on the zones of the zone-divided image is calculated to produce an index.
