CAFIIR: An Image Based CBR/IR Application
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we describe a multimedia application called Computer Aided Facial Image Inferencing and Retrieval (CAFIIR) system. This system uses both Case Based Reasoning and Information Retrieval Techniques. In CAFIIR we use fuzzy measures to represent characteristic features of a human face. This paper describes a method designed to implement inferencing using fuzzy measures. It also describes how CAFIIR handles CHFs values that may span across two or more Fuzzy sets. The paper illustrates how Dempster Sharer theory can be useful for extracting weights for individual characteristic features when weights are given for combined features. Some parts of the application have been implemented while others are still under implementation.

An Approach to Incorporating CBR Concepts in IR Systems
Information retrieval (IR) is concerned with techniques that can provide effective access to large databases of objects that contain primarily text. It is generally assumed that there is a wide variety of users and a large number of potential queries. Although these characteristics are different than those of a typical case-based reasoning (CBR) application, there are opportunities for integrat...
متن کاملCase-based Reasoning Model Applied to Information Retrieval
This paper is about work in progress on the application of Case Based Reasoning (CBR) to problems of Information Retrieval (IR). Many approaches to IR have already been developed. They inv olve techniques such as keyword searches and the use of boolean queries which are applied to databases or indexes. Other methods are based on probabilistic or statistical analysis of occurrences of words or p...
متن کاملUsing CBR to Drive IR
We discuss the use of Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) to drive an Information Retrieval (IR) system. Our hybrid CBR-IR approach takes as input a standard frame-based representation of a problem case, and outputs texts of relevant cases retrieved from a document corpus dramatically larger than the case base available to the CBR system. While the smaller case base is accessible by the usual case-based...
متن کاملUsing Cbr Learning for the Low-level and High- Level Unit of an Image Interpretation System
The existing image interpretation systems lack robustness and accuracy. They cannot adapt to changing environmental conditions and to new objects. The application of machine learning to image interpretation is the next logical step. Our proposed approach aims at the development of dedicated machine learning techniques at all levels of image interpretation in a systematic fashion. In the paper w...
متن کاملAirborne Fungi Identification by Case-Based Reasoning
Human beings are exposed every day to bioaerosols in the various fields of their personal and/or professional daily life. The European Commission has rules protecting employees in the workplace from biological hazards. Airborne fungi can be detected and identified by an image acquisition and interpretation system. In this paper we present our preliminary work on building an automatic cbr-based ...
