“…To this end, a number of models were experimented with that permit the representation and comparison of images in terms of quantitative indexes of visual features [3], [4], [5]. In particular, different techniques were identified and experimented with to represent the content of single images according to low-level features, such as color [6], [7], [8], texture [9], [10], shape [11], [12], [13], and structure [14], [15]; Color Image Processing intermediate-level features of saliency [16], [17], [18] and spatial relationships [19], [20], [21], [22], [23]; or high-level traits modeling the semantics of image content [24], [25], [26]. In doing so, extracted features may either refer to the overall image (e.g., a color histogram), or to any subset of pixels constituting a spatial entity with some apparent visual cohesion in the user's perception.…”
