Most Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems employ color as primary feature with texture and shape as secondary features. Very few systems exploit spatial features. None of the available systems combines all three visual features, texture, shape and location, for organization and retrieval. Moreover relatively few systems use Gabor filters in texture extraction, despite the widely acclaim...

Image annotation is a very important task as the number of photographs has gone sky-high. This paper describes our participation in the ImageCLEF Large Scale Visual Concept Detection and Annotation Task 2009. We present the method used for our best run. Our approach is inspired from a recently proposed method where joint equal contribution (JEC) of simple global color and texture features can o...

This work presents a methodology for the combination and use of many simple features of di ering modalities that are extracted from the environment. There are two main ideas presented here, rst that it is important to consider all modalities for extracting sensory features and second, that useful information can be extracted without resorting to computationally expensive methods. Many useful fe...

INTRODUCTION Analysis of nuclear texture features as a measure of nuclear chromatin changes has been proven to be useful when measured on thin (5-6 microm) tissue sections using conventional 2D bright field microscopy. The drawback of this approach is that most nuclei are not intact because of those thin sections. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) allows measurements of texture in 3D re...
