Application of Fractal Codes as Similarity Measure for Compressed Image Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
In image database applications, it is desirable that functions such as searching, browsing, and partial recall be done without totally decompressing the images. Using wavelet-compressed images is becoming increasingly popular. Image databases, and edge images derived from such compressed images can be viewed as indexes that can be queried by examples. In this research, a fractional code generated by a neural fractal memory [1] with four neurons was used as a distance-measure for the index edge image, and the query sketch image. This distance measure was compared with the central and Zernik moments being used by other researcher [2].

Fractal Techniques for Face Recognition
Fractals are popular because of their ability to create complex images using only several simple codes. This is possible by capturing image redundancy and presenting the image in compressed form using the self similarity feature. For many years fractals were used for image compression. In the last few years they have also been used for face recognition. In this research we present new fractal m...

متن کاملSearching in Compressed Image Databases
Content-based image retrieval consists in retrieving from an image database the most similar image with respect to a query, according to some similarity measure. This scenario has numerous specific applications that include bioinformatics and medical imaging, among others. However, because the size of image repositories grows very fast, finding patterns in images requires an index to avoid a se...
متن کاملFast image search on a VQ compressed image database
A fast and efficient image search method is developed for a compressed image database using vector quantization (VQ). An image search on an image database requires an exhaustive sequential scan of all the images, given the similarity measure. If compressed images are dealt with, images are decompressed as an initial operation and then the previously mentioned exhaustive search is performed usin...
