Abstract: One of the challenging tasks of image processing is image retrieval. Image retrieval is performed by matching the features of the image. In the literature many researchers derived local texture features and produced diverse feature descriptors for efficient image retrieval. Most of the local features are derived based on the relationship between centre pixels versus with boundary or neighboring pixels over a local neighborhood. In this paper we propose a new local descriptor based on full texton index pattern using HSV color space. The HSV color space is used to derive color, intensity and brightness features in the form of histograms. This paper transforms the V-plane image into full texton index (FTi ) image. A co-occurrence matrix is derived on FTi image and this results full texton matrix (FTM). This paper derives the co-occurrence structural features in the form of histogram and color histogram features are concatenated to derive feature vector. This feature vector is named as “color and full texton matrix histogram” (C&FTMH). The proposed C&FTMH framework is tested on the five popular databases and results are compared with state-of-art methods with color features.
