چکیده

This paper proposes a new type of a support vector machine which uses a kernel constituted from fuzzy basis functions. The proposed network combines the characteristics both of a support vector machine and a fuzzy system: high generalization performance, even when the dimension of the input space is very high, structured and numerical representation of knowledge and ability to extract linguistic fuzzy rules, in order to bridge the “semantic gap” between the low-level descriptors and the high-level semantics of an image. The Fuzzy SVM network was evaluated using images from the aceMedia Repository and more specifically in a beach/urban scenes classification problem.

Automatic Image Annotation for Semantic Image Retrieval

This paper addresses the challenge of automatic annotation of images for semantic image retrieval. In this research, we aim to identify visual features that are suitable for semantic annotation tasks. We propose an image classification system that combines MPEG-7 visual descriptors and support vector machines. The system is applied to annotate cityscape and landscape images. For this task, our ...

Fusing MPEG-7 Visual Descriptors for Image Classification

This paper proposes a number of content-based image classification techniques based on fusing various low-level MPEG-7 visual descriptors. The goal is to fuse several descriptors in order to improve the performance of several machine-learning classifiers. Fusion is necessary as descriptors would be otherwise incompatible and inappropriate to directly include e.g. in a Euclidean distance. Three ...

Multi-level Fusion for Semantic Video Content Indexing and Retrieval

In this paper, we present the results of our work on the analysis of an automatic semantic video content indexing and retrieval system based on fusing various low level visual and edges descriptors. Global MPEG-7 features, extracted from video shots, are described via IVSM signature (Image Vector Space Model) in order to have a compact description of the content. Both static and dynamic feature...

Analyzing of Added Value of the Descriptors Based on MPEG-7 Vector Quantization

An approach for extracting higher-level visual features for art painting classification based on MPEG-7 descriptors was implemented in the system “Art Painting Image Colour Aesthetics and Semantics” (APICAS). The approach consists of the following steps: (1) tiling images into non-overlapping rectangles in order to capture more detailed local information; (2) the tiles of the images are cluster...

Fruits Classification Using MPEG-7 Descriptors from Image Patches

In a supermarket checkout, employees deal with a great number of different fruits and vegetables. Sometimes, the correct pricing of those items is a difficult task, due to the short available time or even inexperience. In this paper we present a complete method for the automatic classification of fruits, extendable for vegetables. We use patches extracted from the images and represented by mean...
