This book introduces a range of image color feature extraction techniques. Readers are encouraged to try implementing the techniques discussed here on their own, all of which are presented in a very simple and step-by-step manner. In addition, the book can be used as an introduction to image color feature techniques for those who are new to the research field and software. The techniques are very easy to understand as most of them are described with pictorial examples. Not only the techniques themselves, but also their applications are covered. Accordingly, the book offers a valuable guide to these tools, which are a vital component of content-based image retrieval (CBIR).
