Incorporating Shape into Histograms for CBIR

چکیده
This paper describes an indexing system for use in Content Based Image Retrieval. The standard colour histogram approach is simple, eÆcient, and robust. However, it does not include shape information, which leads to problems (e.g. many-to-many mappings). To remedy this we use additional features in an attempt to incorporate shape and textual information to the index key. Our experiments showed that the combination of colour, texture, distance and orientation histograms gave approximately 10% improvement of recall over the standard colour histogram.

Content-Based Image Retrieval using Cellular Automata
Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is generally known as a collection of techniques for retrieving images on the basis of features, such as color, texture and shape. An efficient tool in CBIR is that of image histograms. In this paper a new image retrieval method is proposed with the use of histograms in conjunction with cellular automata (CAs). The main thrust of this paper is the classifica...
متن کاملColor Histogram and Discrete Cosine Transform for Color Image Retrieval
This paper proposes a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) method based on color histograms and the discrete cosine transform (DCT). Color histogram characterizes an image by its color distribution, but the drawback of a global histogram representation is that spatial information (such as object location, shape, and texture) is discarded. In our approach, each image is first transformed into th...
متن کاملAugmented Content Based Image Retrieval using Fusion Based on Self Organizing Map
Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) comprises the task of retrieving the image from a large database which matches the query image. The features like color, texture and shape are taken as multiple features and using fusion Self Organizing Map the matching process is carried out. Enhanced HSV-based Histograms for color, Active Contours for shape, DWT transformation for texture are applied and t...
متن کاملContent-based Image Retrieval Using Constrained Independent Component Analysis: Facial Image Retrieval Based on Compound Queries
Visual information plays a crucial role in various domains, from medical diagnosis, journalism, crime-prevention to surveillance. Whereas domain specific images carry specific semantics, the problem of interpreting visual information becomes more complex when we talk of natural images. The maxim, 'A picture is worth a thousand words' explains this inherent problem very concisely. Indexing large...
متن کاملCBIR Using Local and Global Properties of Image Sub-blocks
This paper proposes a content based image retrieval (CBIR) system using the local colour and texture features of selected image sub-blocks and global colour and shape features of the image. The image sub-blocks are roughly identified by segmenting the image into partitions of different configuration, finding the edge density in each partition using edge thresholding, morphological dilation and ...
