چکیده
In this paper, we present a clustering-based color indexing scheme for effective amd efficient image retrieval, which is essentially an exploration on the application of clustering technique to image retrieval. In our approach, the color features are clustered automatically using a color clustering algorithm twice (called two-level clustering processing) and two color feature summarizations are obtained, e.g. Local Color Centriods (LCCs) and Global Color Centroids (GCCs). Based upon LCCs and GCCs, a three-level R-tree is bulit for indexing database images and performing effecitve and efficient image retrieval. The experiments show that this indexing scheme is effective and efficient in performing image retrieval.

An efficient color representation for image retrieval
A compact color descriptor and an efficient indexing method for this descriptor are presented. The target application is similarity retrieval in large image databases using color. Colors in a given region are clustered into a small number of representative colors. The feature descriptor consists of the representative colors and their percentages in the region. A similarity measure similar to th...

In this article, a fabulous method for database retrieval is proposed. The multi-resolution modified wavelet transform for each of image is computed and the standard deviation and average are utilized as the textural features. Then, the proposed modified bit-based color histogram and edge detectors were utilized to define the high level features. A feedback-based dynamic weighting of shap...

متن کاملGrouping and Indexing Color Features for Efficient Image Retrieval
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) aims at searching image databases for specific images that are similar to a given query image based on matching of features derived from the image content. This paper focuses on a low-dimensional color based indexing technique for achieving efficient and effective retrieval performance. In our approach, the color features are extracted using the mean shift a...
متن کاملFrequency layered color indexing for content-based image retrieval
Image patches of different spatial frequencies are likely to have different perceptual significance as well as reflect different physical properties. Incorporating such concept is helpful to the development of more effective image retrieval techniques. We introduce a method which separates an image into layers, each of which retains only pixels in areas with similar spatial frequency characteri...
