Can somebody explain me the meaning of this sentence? (Color Similarity - Selective Search Algorithm)
If you have two images, you first start to make histograms of the values (0-255) in the three color channels (red, green, and blue). In the article 25 bins are used, meaning that the values are assigned to one of 25 ranges. The second step is to then concatenate the the three single channel histograms to one histogram for the full image. Since each image channel histogram has 25 bins, the concatenates histogram will have 75 bins (and thus is of length 75). When you do this for both images you want to compare you will now have two histograms. To get a similarity score you compute the intersection of the two histograms, i.e. the percentage of overlap. The following link from the article provides a more visual explanation on this.
