This paper focuses on applications of fuzzy segmentation in region indexing and image retrieval. First, our algorithm of fuzzy segmentation is shortly explained. Some features characterizing a fuzzy region are then defined, and a distance between fuzzy regions is proposed. This distance can be used to rank regions on color and/or shape features or to perform a partial request from a image, request consisting in a set of regions.
