چکیده

We present a method for image retrieval by color and shape similarity matching using metric indexing. We extract color features into the HSV color and for shape features extraction we use Fourier descriptors. We index the combined color and shape features vectors into a M-tree. We complement the use of the M-tree with a filtering technique that also permits partial-image matching. We use a similarity measure calculated as an affine linear combination of L1 and L2 metrics. In the refinement query step for color extraction we use a special histogram with a uniform color transition which enables a window-based smoothing during retrieval. Our experimental results show that our technique is both correct and efficient. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 68U10; Secondary 68P20.

Image Retrieval Using Dynamic Weighting of Compressed High Level Features Framework with LER Matrix

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...

PicToSeek: combining color and shape invariant features for image retrieval

We aim at combining color and shape invariants for indexing and retrieving images. To this end, color models are proposed independent of the object geometry, object pose, and illumination. From these color models, color invariant edges are derived from which shape invariant features are computed. Computational methods are described to combine the color and shape invariants into a unified high-d...

Color and Shape Index for Region-Based Image Retrieval

Most CBIR systems use low-level visual features for representation and retrieval of images. Generally such methods suffer from the problems of high-dimensionality leading to more computational time and inefficient indexing and retrieval performance. This paper focuses on a low-dimensional color and shape based indexing technique for achieving efficient and effective retrieval performance. We pr...
