Gooday, i am doin my masters project on using color features for content based image retrieval and as i have no previous knowledge of image processing i am very confused on the direction to take. can i pls find sum1 to put me through, i want to know how to use matlab to calculate color histograms and to implement multidimensional scaling techniques in displaying this images using matlab.....pls i will appreciate if any1 could help.

If you have a question about how to use MATLAB to implement a particular
algorithm, then you should ask on this newsgroup. Generally if you show a
small section of code and ask a specific question, you're likely to receive
some help.

If you're looking for general help with image processing algorithms, though,
then this is not the newsgroup you're looking for. Try sci.image.processing
or another newsgroup dedicated to image processing first; then once you know
how to do what you want to do from an algorithmic standpoint, if you need
help implementing it in MATLAB, see my previous paragraph. You can access
sci.image.processing via Google Groups (http://groups.google.com) if your
news server doesn't carry it.

You might start by reviewing how it's already being done by several packages:
