Most existing object-based image retrieval systems are based on single object matching, with its main limitation being that one individual image region (object) can hardly represent the user’s retrieval target, especially when more than one object of interest is involved in the retrieval. Integrated Region Matching (IRM) has been used to improve the retrieval accuracy by evaluating the overall similarity between images and incorporating the properties of all the regions in the images. However, IRM does not take the user’s preferred regions into account and has undesirable time complexity. In this article, we present a Feedback-based Image Clustering and Retrieval Framework (FIRM) using a novel image clustering algorithm and integrating it with Integrated Region Matching (IRM) and Relevance Feedback (RF). The performance of the system is evaluated on a large image database, demonstrating the effectiveness of our framework in catching users’ retrieval interests in object-based image retrieval.

The digital image data is quick expanding in capacity and heterogeneity. The customary information retrieval approaches are cannot fulfill the client's need, so there isneed to present a proficient framework for Content Based Image Retrieval(CBIR). The CBIR is an appealing wellspring of precise and quick retrieval. CBIR goes for discovering imagedatabases for explicit images that are like a given query image dependent on its features.In this paper the methodology of content based image retrieval are examined, investigated and thought about. Here, the different image substance, for example, colour, texture and shape features are mined by utilizing differentfeature extraction procedures, and furthermore extraordinary distance measures, Relevance Feedback (RF) and indexing methods are used to improve the execution of the CBIR system.The existing exploration strategies are talked about with their benefits and negative marks, so the further research works can be focused more.
