A Semantic Distance Based Nearest Neighbor Method for Image Annotation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Most of the Nearest Neighbor (NN) based image annotation (or classification) methods cannot achieve satisfactory performance, due to the fact that information loss is inevitable when extracting visual features from images, such as constructing bag of visual words based features. In this paper, we propose a novel NN method based on semantic distance, which improves classification performance by compensating for the information loss and minimizing the semantic gap between intra-class variations and inter-class similarities. We first deal with distance metric using image semantic information. Then we construct NN-based classifier which utilizes the distance metric to compute the similarity between any two images. Experimental results based on image annotation task of ImageCLEF2012 show that the proposed method outperforms the traditional classifiers. More importantly, our method is extremely simple, efficient, and competitive in comparison with the state of the art learning-based image classifiers.

Automatic image annotation is a process in which computer systems automatically assign the textual tags related with visual content to a query image. In most cases, inappropriate tags generated by the users as well as the images without any tags among the challenges available in this field have a negative effect on the query's result. In this paper, a new method is presented for automatic image...
متن کاملImproving image annotation via ranking-oriented neighbor search and learning-based keyword propagation
Automatic image annotation plays a critical role in modern keyword-based image retrieval systems. For this task, the nearest-neighbor–based scheme works in two phases: first, it finds the most similar neighbors of a new image from the set of labeled images; then, it propagates the keywords associated with the neighbors to the new image. In this article, we propose a novel approach for image ann...
