Low- and High-level Image Annotation Using Fuzzy Petri Net Knowledge Representation Scheme
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to exploit the massive image information and to handle overload, techniques for analyzing image content to facilitate indexing and retrieval of images have emerged. In this paper, a low-level and high-level image semantic annotation based on Fuzzy Petri Net is presented. Knowledge scheme is used to define more general and complex semantic concepts and their relations in the context of the examined outdoor domain. A formal description of hierarchical and spatial relationships among concepts from the outdoor image domain is described. The automatic image annotation procedure based on fuzzy recognition and inheritance algorithm, that maps high-level semantics to image, is presented together with experimental results.

Multi-level Image Annotation Using Bayes Classifier and Fuzzy Knowledge Representation Scheme
Automatic image annotation (AIA) is the process by which metadata, in form of keywords or text descriptions are automatically assigned to an unlabeled image. Generally, two problems can be distinguished: the problem of semantic extraction, due to the gap between the image features and object labels, and the problem of semantic interpretation, due to the gap between the object labels and the hum...
متن کاملA knowledge-based multi-layered image annotation system
Major challenge in automatic image annotation is bridging the semantic gap between the computable lowlevel image features and the human-like interpretation of images. The interpretation includes concepts on different levels of abstraction that cannot be simply mapped to features but require additional reasoning with general and domain-specific knowledge. The problem is even more complex since k...
متن کاملA model of fuzzy spatio-temporal knowledge representation and reasoning based on high-level Petri nets
In many application areas there is a need to represent human-like knowledge related to spatio-temporal relations among multiple moving objects. This type of knowledge is usually imprecise, vague and fuzzy, while the reasoning about spatio-temporal relations is intuitive. In this paper we present a model of fuzzy spatio-temporal knowledge representation and reasoning based on high-level Petri ne...
متن کاملAutomatic image annotation refinement using fuzzy inference algorithms
Facilitating tasks such as image search is one of the goals of image annotation methods that automatically assign keywords to images. In order to achieve as accurate annotation on object level as possible, and to reduce negative influence of misclassified objects on the inference of scenes, a knowledge based refinement of object classification results is proposed. A fuzzy knowledge representati...
متن کاملIntersection Search for a Fuzzy Petri Net-Based Knowledge Representation Scheme
This paper describes the intersection search as an inference procedure for a knowledge representation scheme based on the theory of Fuzzy Petri Nets. The procedure uses the dynamical properties of the scheme. The relationships between the concepts of interest, obtained by the intersection search algorithm, are accompanied by the value of the linguistic variable expressing the assurance for the ...
