Abstract

We present a framework to compute the distance between color distributions based on differential geometry. We investigate more detailed the case when color distributions are described as linear combinations of a set of pre-computed basic functions. Experiments in our color based image retrieval system, which were done on 1000 images from Corel image database, show the advantage of our method based on the new distance measure and color descriptor.
