چکیده

One of the main goals in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is to incorporate shape into the process in a reliable manner. In order to overcome the difficulties of directly obtaining shape information (in particular avoiding region segmentation) we develop several shape measures that tackle the problem in an indirect manner, requiring only a minimal amount of segmentation. A histogram-based scheme is then used, maintaining low complexity with high efficiency and robustness. The obtained results showed that the synergy of the shape measures worked out providing an improvement over the colour histogram.

Image Retrieval Using Dynamic Weighting of Compressed High Level Features Framework with LER Matrix

In this article, a fabulous method for database retrieval is proposed.  The multi-resolution modified wavelet transform for each of image is computed and the standard deviation and average are utilized as the textural features. Then, the proposed modified bit-based color histogram and edge detectors were utilized to define the high level features. A feedback-based dynamic weighting of shap...

Shape Measures for Content Based Image Retrieval: A Comparison

A great deal of work has been done on the evaluation of information retrieval systems for alphanumeric data. The same thing can not be said about the newly emerging multimedia and image database systems. One of the central concerns in these systems is the automatic characterization of image content and retrieval of images based on similarity of image content. In this paper, we discuss effective...

Shape Based Image Retrieval: A Review

Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system is an approach to search images and retrieve relevant images from image databases using visual content (information) of an image. In today’s scenario, CBIR receives a query object as input and retrieves similar objects as output from an image database according to a similarity/distance measure. Generally, color, texture, shapes or any combinations of ...

A comparison of the effectiveness of alternative feature sets in shape retrieval of multi-component images

Many different kinds of feature have been used as the basis for shape retrieval from image databases. This paper investigates the relative effectiveness of several types of global shape feature, both singly and in combination. The features compared include well-established descriptors such as Fourier coefficients and moment invariants, as well as recently-proposed measures of triangularity, rec...

A New Integrated Method for Shape Based Image Retrieval

This paper proposes a novel and efficient shape retrieval scheme, which is robust to RST (Rotation, Scaling, and Translation). The proposed approach integrates global and local shape descriptors for accurate retrieval, where the global descriptors are obtained from the Fourier transformation, and the local descriptors are obtained from a one-level wavelet transformation. The global and local si...
