Indexing via color histograms
Abstract
This paper shows color histograms to be stable object representations over change in view, and demonstrates that they can differentiate among a large number of objects. The authors introduce a technique called histogram intersection for efficiently matching model and image histograms. Color can also be used to search for the location of an object. An algorithm called histogram backprojection performs this task efficiently in crowded scenes.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
