Efficient Retrieval

Developments in technology and the Internet have led to an increase in number of digital images and videos. Thousands of images are added to WWW every day. Content based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system typically consists of a query example image, given by the user as an input, from which low-level image features are extracted. These low level image features are used to find images in the database which are most similar to the query image and ranked according their similarity. This chapter evaluates various CBIR techniques based on fuzzy logic and neural networks and proposes a novel fuzzy approach to classify the colour images based on their content, to pose a query in terms of natural language and fuse the queries based on neural networks for fast and efficient retrieval. A number of experiments were conducted for classification, and retrieval of images on sets of images and promising results were obtained.

The optimized distance-based access methods currently available for multimedia databases are based on two major assumptions: a suitable distance function is known a priori, and the dimensionality of image features is low. The standard approach to building image databases is to represent images via vectors based on low-level visual features and make retrieval based on these vectors. However, due to the large gap between the semantic notions and low-level visual content, it is extremely difficult to define a distance function that accurately captures the similarity of images as perceived by humans. Furthermore, popular dimension reduction methods suffer from either the inability to capture the nonlinear correlations among raw data or very expensive training cost. To address the problems, in this chapter we introduce a new indexing technique called Combining Multiple Visual Features (CMVF) that integrates multiple visual features to get better query effectiveness. Our approach is able to produce low-dimensional image feature vectors that include not only low-level visual properties but also high-level semantic properties. The hybrid architecture can produce feature vectors that capture the salient properties of images yet are small enough to allow the use of existing high-dimensional indexing methods to provide efficient and effective retrieval.

Low Level

In study of image affective semantic classification, one problem is the low classification accuracy caused by low-level redundant features. To eliminate the redundancy, a novel image affective classification method based on attributes reduction is proposed. In this method, a decision table is built from the extraction of image features first. And then valid low-level features are determined through the feature selection process using the rough set attribute reduction algorithm. Finally, the semantic recognition is done using SVM. Experiment results show that the proposed method improves the accuracy in image affective semantic classification significantly.

Hierarchy Process

An approach to improve the regions of interesting (ROIs) selection accuracy automatically for medical images is proposed. The aim of the study is to select the most interesting regions of image features that good for diffuse objects detection or classification. We use the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) to obtain physicians high-level diagnosis vectors and are clustered using the well-known K-Means clustering algorithm. The system also automatically extracts low-level image features for improving to detect liver diseases from ultrasound images. The weights of low-level features are adaptively updated according the feature variances in the class. Finally, the high-level diagnosis decision is made based on the high-level diagnosis vectors for the top K near neighbors from the medical experts classified database. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the system.

Direction Information

Locating text region from an image of nature scene is significantly helpful for better understanding the semantic meaning of the image, which plays an important role in many applications such as image retrieval, image categorization, social media processing, etc. Traditional approach relies on the low level image features to progressively locate the candidate text regions. However, these approaches often suffer for the cases of the clutter background since the adopted low level image features are fairly simple which may not reliably distinguish text region from the clutter background. Motivated by the recent popular research on attention model, salience detection is revisited in this paper. Based on the case of text detection on nature scene image, saliency map is further analyzed and is adjusted accordingly. Using the adjusted saliency map, the candidate text regions detected by the common low level features are further verified. Moreover, efficient low level text feature, Histogram of Edge-direction (HOE), is adopted in this paper, which statistically describes the edge direction information of the region of interest on the image. Encouraging experimental results have been obtained on the nature scene images with the text of various languages.
