    In this paper, indexing is used as a common framework to represent, index and retrieve images on the basis of color and shape invariants. To evaluate the use of color and shape invariants for the purpose of image retrieval, experiments have been conducted on a database consisting of 500 images of multicolored objects. Images in the database show a considerable amount of noise, specularities, occlusion and fragmentation resulting in a good representation of views from everyday life as it appears in home video and consumer photography in general. The experimental results show that image retrieval based on both color and shape invariants provides excellent retrieval accuracy. Image retrieval based on shape invariants yields poor discriminative power and worst computational performance whereas color based invariants image retrieval provides high discrimination power and best computational performance. Furthermore, the experimental results reveal that identifying multicolored objects entirely on the basis of color invariants is to a large degree robust to partial occlusion and a change in viewing position.

    Color histograms computed from the normalized and hue color space are negatively affected by sensor noise due to the instability of these color space transforms at many RGB values. To suppress the effect of sensor noise, in this paper density estimations are computed using variable kernels. To that end, models are proposed for the propagation of sensor noise through the

    This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Workshop on Human Behavior Understanding, HBU 2010, a satellite workshop of the International Conference on Pattern Recognition in Istanbul, Turkey, on August 22, 2010. The 13 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 29 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on analysis of human activities; non-verbal action dynamics; visual action recognition; and social signals.
    Experiments on the PASCAL VOC07 and VOC10 datasets show that the proposed method significantly outperforms single object detectors, DPM (8.4%), CN (6.8%) and EES (17.0%) on VOC07 and DPM (6.5%), CN (5.5%) and EES (16.2%) on VOC10.
