Texture Based Image Retrieval Using Framelet Transform–Gral Level Co-Occurrence Matrix(Glcm)

This paper presents a novel content based image retrieval (CBIR) system based on Framelet Transform combined with gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM).The proposed method is shift invariant which captured edge information more accurately than conventional transform domain methods as well as able to handle images of arbitrary size. Current system uses texture as a visual content for feature extraction. First Texture features are obtained by computing the energy, standard deviation and mean on each sub band of the Framelet transform decomposed image .Then a new method as a combination of the Framelet transform-Gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) is applied. The results of the proposed methods are compared with conventional methods. We have done the comparison of results of these two methods for image retrieval. Euclidean distance, Canberra distance, city black distance is used as similarity measure in the proposed CBIR system.
