Evaluation of color descriptors for object and scene recognition
Koen E. A. van de Sande, Theo Gevers, Cees G. M. Snoek · 2008
Image category recognition is important to access visual information on the level of objects and scene types. So far, intensity-based descriptors have been widely used. To increase illumination invariance and discriminative power, color descriptors have been proposed only recently. As many descriptors exist, a structured overview of color invariant descriptors in the context of image category recognition is required.
