Abstract
Color correlogram is widely used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) because it extracts not only the color distribution of pixels in images like color histogram, but also extracts the spatial information of pixels in the images. The color correlogram uses single color space. Therefore, the color correlograms does not have robust discriminative features. In this paper, we use both RGB and HSV color spaces together for the color correlogram to achieve better discriminative features. The proposed algorithm is tested on a large database of images and the results are compared with the single color space color correlogram. In simulation results, the proposed algorithm 5.63 average retrieval rank less than single color space correlogram.
