Abstract :
This paper describes a project that implements and tests a simple color histogram based search and retrieve algorithm for images. The study finds the technique to be effective as shown by analysis using the RankPower measurement. The testing also highlights the weaknesses and strengths of the model, concluding that the technique would have to be augmented and modified in order for practical use.
