چکیده
Interest in the digital images has increased a lot over the last few years, but the process of locating a desired image in such a large and diverse image collection becomes very difficult. Traditionally text in different languages is used for efficient retrieval of images; it has several drawbacks such as language constraint and subjectivity of human perception. Content-based image retrieval is a technique which uses visual contents such as color texture and shape to search images from large image databases according to user's desire. Color is the most commonly used feature for content based image retrieval. In many applications color histogram is used to represent extracted color features. The important drawback of usual color histogram based method is that, it does not take image color distribution into consideration and inflexibly partition the color spaces into a fixed number of bins. In this paper we propose a moment-preserving technique based on binary quaternion space for feature extraction. It aims to extract color features according to the image color distribution that effectively reduces the distortion incurred in the feature extraction process. We also propose an efficient clustering based algorithm to compare similarity between two histograms. It is observed that minimizing the distortion incurred in the extraction process can improve the accuracy of retrieval. Our experimental results show that the proposed extraction methods can improve the average retrieval precision rate by a factor of 25% over that of a color histogram based feature extraction

متن کاملThe maximum number of halving lines and the rectilinear crossing number of Kn for n ≤ 27 . Bernardo
For n ≤ 27 we present exact values for the maximum number h(n) of halving lines and eh(n) of halving pseudolines, determined by n points in the plane. For this range of values of n we also present exact values of the rectilinear cr(n) and the pseudolinear e cr(n) crossing number of the complete graph Kn. eh(n) and e cr(n) are new for n ∈ {14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27}, h(n) is new for...
متن کاملNumber of occlusal units estimated from number of present teeth.
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between number of present teeth (PT) and number of occlusal units (OUs). The data were obtained from a periodontal disease examination based on the health promotion law in Tokyo, Japan in 2005. Data from a total of 1,549 (524 male and 1,025 female) 60-year-old people were analyzed in this study. The number of OUs was counted by analyzing t...
متن کاملEffects of Salinity on In vitro Shoot Proliferation and Rooting of Apple Rootstock MM.106
In the present study, the in vitro response of MM.106 apple rootstock to increasing concentrations of NaCl (0, 20, 40, 80, 100 and 120 mM) in the Murashige and Skoog culture medium was analyzed. Explant growth was seriously affected by salinity treatments. Elevated salinity from 20 (control) to 40, 80, 100 and 120 mM NaCl resulted in reduction in shoot growth (shoot number, length and fresh wei...
