Abstract :
The creation of content in the form of digital images and video is continuously adding to the already large collection of worldwide digital imagery. The tremendous growth of the Internet has allowed users to share these rich media types and has also provided the means to browse, query, retrieve, and manipulate this extensive collection of imagery. This has created a substantial demand for algorithms that facilitate content-based access to these vast sources of information.
