Abstract

This paper describes a straightforward method of analysing the colour spectra of natural images using a hue histogramming technique. Examples of post-processed first moment data from these histograms axe then analysed using simple feedforward neural networks. These networks are shown to provide a good level of generalisation and can therefore be used for classification.
