چکیده
ABSTRACT In this research, we propose a similarity-based image retrieval considering position fluctuation by self-organizing map with refractoriness. Most of the conventional image retrieval systems retrieve only images where color and position of objects are similar, and can not realize retrieval considering the position fluctuation. In the proposed system, firstly, the similar images are retrieved based on the color information (natural objects), the color information (artifacts) and spectrum (Search Request 1). If there is no similar image corresponding to the key image or the user can not get enough similar images, the search which permits fluctuation of left-and-right position (Search Request 2) and the search which permits fluctuation of up-and-down position (Search Request 3) are carried out. We carried out a series of computer experiments and confirmed that the proposed system can retrieve similar images considering position fluctuation.

Digital image libraries are becoming more common and widely used as more visual information is produced at a rapidly growing rate. Content-based image retrieval is an important approach to the problem of processing this increasing amount of data. It is based on automatically extracted features from the content of the images, such as color, texture, shape, and structure. We have started a projec...

Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) have been successfully applied to content-based image retrieval (CBIR). In this study, we investigate the potential of PicSOM, an image database browsing system, applied to remote sensing images. Databases of small images were artificially created, either from a single satellite image for object detection, or two satellite images when considering change detection. By...

We propose an information organizer for e ective clustering and similarity-based retrieval of text and video data. Instead of giving keywords or authoring them, we use a vector space model and DCT image coding in order to extract characteristics of data. Data are clustered by Kohonen's self-organizing map, and the result is visualized in a 3D form. By this, similarity-based retrieval is achieve...

In this paper, an unsupervised learning network is explored to incorporate a self-learning capability into image retrieval systems. Our proposal is a new attempt to automate recursive content-based image retrieval. The adoption of a self-organizing tree map (SOTM) is introduced, to minimize the user participation in an effort to automate interactive retrieval. The automatic learning mode has be...
