... in Section 4. As the color space includes the hue (H), the saturation (S) and the light intensity (L), HSL accords well with human visual understanding about color, saturation and light intensity. Therefore, it is more suitable for image processing than RGB color space (Niu and Li, 2006 ; Zou...
