: This paper was motivated by the desire to improve the effectiveness of retrieving images on the basis of their color content by improving the Color Coherence Vector method. There...
Information about dynamic spatial fields, such as temperature, windspeed, or the concentration of gas pollutant in the air, is important for many environmental applications. At th...
We investigate the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval. The EMD is based on the minimal cost ...
Dominant color descriptor (DCD) is one of the color descriptors proposed by MPEG-7 that has been extensively used for image retrieval. Among the color descriptors, DCD describes t...
