Image Color Feature Extraction Techniques

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology ((BRIEFSINTELL))

Abstract

Two main factors motivate the need for color in image processing. First, color is a strong descriptor frequently simplifying the recognition and extraction of objects from a picture. Second, people can distinguish thousands of tones of color and intensity comparable to just about two dozen tones of gray [1,2,3,4].
