FUZZY RELEVANCE FEEDBACK IN CONTENT−BASED IMAGE RETRIEVAL SYSTEMS USING RADIAL BASIS FUNCTION NETWORK (FriAmOR7)
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new framework called fuzzy relevance feedback in interactive content−based image retrieval (CBIR) systems based on soft−decision. An efficient learning approach is proposed using a fuzzy radial basis function network (FRBFN). Conventional binary labeling schemes require a crisp decision to be made on the relevance of the retrieved images. However, user interpretation varies with respect to different information needs and perceptual subjectivity. In addition, users tend to learn from the retrieval results to further refine their information priority. Therefore, fuzzy relevance feedback is introduced in this paper to integrate the users¡ ̄ fuzzy interpretation of visual content into the notion of relevance feedback. Based on the users¡ ̄ feedbacks, an FRBFN is constructed, and the underlying parameters and network structure are optimized using a gradient−descent training strategy. Experimental results using a database of 10,000 images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

متن کاملA Neural Network-based Flexible Image Retrieval
In content-based image retrieval (CBIR), content of an image can be expressed in terms of different features such as color, texture, shape, or text annotations. Retrieval based on these features can be various by the way how to combine the feature values. Most of the existing approaches assume a linear relationship between different features, and the usefulness of such systems was limited due t...
متن کاملAutomatic machine interactions for content-based image retrieval using a self-organizing tree map architecture
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...
متن کاملImage retrieval with embedded sub-class information using Gaussian mixture models
This paper describes content-based image retrieval techniques within the relevance feedback framework. The Gaussian mixture model (GMM) is used to characterize sub-class information to increase retrieval accuracy and reduce number of interactions during a query session. The implementation of GMM is based on the radial basis function using a new learning algorithm that can cope with small traini...
متن کاملA Learning Approach to Content-based Image Retrieval Combining Radial Basis Functions and Semantic Space
This paper introduces a short-term and long-term learning approach for Content-Based Image Retrieval with relevance feedback. The proposed system combines Radial Basis Function (RBF) network and the Semantic Space methods. The RBF Subsystem captures the non-linear relationship between the low-level features and the semantic meaning within an image, while the Semantic Space Subsystem stores sema...
