abstract = {A new method for color texture retrieval using color and
edge features is proposed in this study. The proposed method unifies
color and edge features rather than simply analyzing only color
characteristics. First, the distributions of color and local edge
patterns are used to derive a similarity measure for a pair of
textures. Then, a retrieval method based on the similarity measure is
proposed to retrieve texture images from a database of color textures.
Finally, the similarity measure is extended to retrieve texture regions
from a database of natural images. Since the proposed feature
distributions can resist variations in translation, rotation and scale,
our method has the ability to retrieve texture images or regions that
change in translation, rotation and/or scale. The effectiveness and
practicability of the proposed method have been demonstrated by various
experiments.},
