            Abstract : 
In this paper we propose an automatic method for computing the bin boundaries of complex 3D LAB histograms in order to extract optimal color feature vectors from digital images. The size of the feature vectors can be adapted to particular application needs. We tested our approach with very good results on an iris recognition problem solved empirically before.
