We address the issue of image database retrieval based on color using various vector distance metrics. Our system is based on color segmentation where only a few representative color vectors are extracted from each image and used as image indices. These vectors are then used with vector distance measures to determine similarity between a query color and a database image. We test numerous popular vector distance measures in our system and find that directional measures provide the most accurate and perceptually relevant retrievals
