	abstract =	{We present two new approaches based on color histogram
	indexing for content-based retrieval of image databases. Since the high
	computational complexity has been one of the main barriers towards the
	use of similarity measures such as histogram intersection in large
	databases, we propose a hierarchical indexing scheme where
	computationally efficient features are used to subset the image before
	more sophisticated techniques are applied for precise retrieval. The
	use of histograms at different color resolutions as filtering and
	matching features in a hierarchical scheme is studied. In the second
	approach, a multiresolution representation of the histogram using the
	indices and signs of its largest wavelet coefficients is examined.
	Excellent results have been observed using the latter method.},
