The paper addresses the problem of how to efficiently and effectively classify color images in predefined classes purely on the basis of low-level feature analysis using tree classifiers. The method proposed here has been tested on the specific high-level classification problem of distinguishing photographs from artworks. Preliminary results are reported.
