Abstract

In this paper, a novel color cooccurrence histogram method, named eCCH which stands for color cooccurrence histogram at edge points, is proposed to describe the spatial-color joint distribution of images. Unlike all existing ideas, we only investigate the color distribution of pixels located at the two sides of edge points on gradient direction lines. When measuring the similarity of two eCCHs, the Gaussian weighted histogram intersection method is adopted, where both identical and similar color pairs are considered to compensate color variations. Comparative experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed eCCH in terms of robustness to color variance and small computational complexity.
