Clustering for Photo Retrieval at Image CLEF 2008

چکیده
This paper presents the first participation of the University of Ottawa group in the Photo Retrieval task at Image CLEF 2008. Our system uses the following components: Lucene for text indexing and LIRE for image indexing. We experiment with several clustering methods in order to retrieve images from diverse clusters. The clustering methods are: k-means clustering, hierarchical clustering, and our own method based on WordNet. We present results for thirteen submitted runs, in order to compare retrieval based on text description, to image-only retrieval, and to merged retrieval, and to compare results for the different clustering methods.

متن کاملAffinity Propagation promoting Diversity in Visuo-entropic and Text Features for CLEF Photo Retrieval 2008 Campaign
We develop for the CLEF PHOTO 2008 task a new visual features using various pixel projections for training SVMs, allowing us to produce image retrieval and clustering using affinity propagation. To heighten the diversity of the top of the retrieval results, we put the images with the lowest rank in each cluster into the top. The LSIS run which used only the visual information is at the 6th best...
متن کاملClustering for Text and Image-based Photo Retrieval at CLEF 2009
For this year’s Image CLEF Photo Retrieval task, we have prepared 5 submission runs to help us assess the effectiveness of 1) image content-based retrieval, and 2) textbased retrieval. We investigate whether the clustering of results can increase diversity by returning as many different clusters of images in the results as possible. Our image system uses the FIRE engine to extract image feature...
متن کاملMeiji University at ImageCLEF2008 Photo Retrieval Task: Evaluation of Image Retrieval Methods Integrating Different Media
This paper describes the participation of the Human Interface Laboratory of Meiji University in the ImageCLEF2008 photo retrieval task. We submitted eight retrieval runs taking two main approaches. The first approach combined Text-Based Image Retrieval (TBIR) and Context-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). The second approach applied query expansion using conceptual fuzzy sets (CFS). A CFS is a metho...
متن کاملDiversity in Image Retrieval: DCU at ImageCLEFPhoto 2008
DCU participated in the ImageCLEF 2008 photo retrieval task, which aimed to evaluate diversity in Image Retrieval, submitting runs for both the English and Random language annotation conditions. Our approaches used text-based and image-based retrieval to give baseline runs, with the the highest-ranked images from these baseline runs clustered using K-Means clustering of the text annotations, wi...
