ABSTRACT:
A method of representing a color image comprises selecting a region of the image, selecting one or more colors as representative colors for the region and, for a region having two or more representative colors, calculating two parameters for each representative color including the variance of the color distribution of the image and the color space value and using these parameters to derive descriptors for the image region.
