In recent days, content based image retrieval (CBIR) becomes a hot research area, which aims to determine the relevant images to the query image (QI) from the available large sized database. This paper presents an optimal hybrid feature extraction with similarity measure (OHFE-SM) for CBIR. Initially, histogram equalization of images takes place as a preprocessing step. Then, texture, shape and color features are extracted. The texture features include Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Gray Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM) is extracted, where the optimal number of features will be chosen by whale optimization algorithm (WOA). Afterwards, the shape feature extraction takes place by Crest lines and color feature extraction process will be carried out using Quaternion moments. Finally, Euclidean distance will be applied as a similarity measure to determine the distance among the feature vectors exist in the database and QI. The images with higher similarity index will be considered as relevant images and is retrieved from the database. A detailed experimental validation takes place against Corel10K dataset. The simulation results showed that the proposed OHFE-SM model has outperformed the existing methods with the higher average precision of 0.915 and recall of 0.780.

Content based image retrieval (CBIR) models become popular for retrieving images connected to the query image (QI) from massive dataset. Feature extraction process in CBIR plays a vital role as it affects the system’s performance. This paper is focused on the design of deep learning (DL) model for feature extraction based CBIR model. The presented model utilizes a ResNet50 with co-occurrence matrix (RCM) model for CBIR. Here, the ResNet50 model is applied for feature extraction of the QI. Then, the extracted features are placed in the feature repository as a feature vector. The RCM model computes the feature vector for every input image and compares it with the features present in the repository. Then, the images with maximum resemblance will be retrieved from the dataset. In addition, the resemblance between the feature vectors is determined by the use of co-occurrence matrix subtraction process. Besides, structural similarity (SSIM) measure is applied for the validation of the similarity among the images. A comprehensive results analysis takes place by the use of Corel 10K dataset. The experimental outcome indicated the superiority of the RCM model with respect to precision, recall and SSIM.

In this chapter authors introduces content-based image retrieval systems and compares them over a common database. For this, four different content-based local binary descriptors are described with and without Gabor transform in brief. Further Nth derivative descriptor is calculated using (N-1)th derivative, based on rotational and multiscale feature extraction. At last the distance based query image matching is used to find the similarity with database. The performance in terms of average precision, average retrieval rate, different orders of derivatives in the form of average retrieval rate, and length of feature vector v/s performance in terms of time have been calculated. For this work a comparative experiment has been conducted using the Ponce Group images on seven classes (each class have 100 images). In addition, the performance of the all descriptors have been analyzed by combining these with the Gabor transform.

Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is an important and widely used technique for retrieval of different kinds of images from large database. Collection of information in database are available in different formats such as text, image, graph, chart etc. Here, our focus is on information which is available in the form of images. Searching and retrieval of the image from a large amount of database is difficult problem because it uses the image visual information such as shape, text and color for indexing and representation of an image. For efficient CBIR system, there is a need to develop different kinds of retrieval methods using feature extraction, similarity matching etc. Text Based Image Retrieval systems are used in many hospitals, but for large databases these are inefficient. To solve this problem, CBIR systems are proposed to retrieve matching images from database using automated feature extraction method. At present, medical imaging field finds extensive growth in the generation and evaluation of various types of medical images which are high inconsistency, usually fused and the combination of various minor composition structures. For easy retrieval, need to be development of feature extraction and image classification methods. Different methods are used for different kinds of medical images. The Radiology department and Cardiology department are the largest producers of medical images and the patient abnormal images can be stored with the normal images. CBIR uses query image as input and it retrieves the images, which are similar to the query more efficiently and effectively. This paper provides a comprehensive Survey about CBIR system and its one of the major application in medical domain.

Data classification has been considered extensively in different fields, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, pattern recognition, and data mining, and the expansion of classification has yielded immense achievements. The automatic classification of maintenance data has been investigated over the past few decades owing to its usefulness in construction and facility management. To utilize automated data classification in the maintenance field, a data classification model is implemented in this study based on the analysis of different mechanical maintenance data. The developed model involves four main steps: (a) data acquisition, (b) feature extraction, (c) feature selection, and (d) classification. During data acquisition, four types of dataset are collected from the benchmark Google datasets. The attributes of each dataset are further processed for classification. Principal component analysis and first-order and second-order statistical features are computed during the feature extraction process. To reduce the dimensions of the features for error-free classification, feature selection was performed. The hybridization of two algorithms, the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Spotted Hyena Optimization (SHO), tends to produce a new algorithm—i.e., a Spotted Hyena-based Whale Optimization Algorithm (SH-WOA), which is adopted for performing feature selection. The selected features are subjected to a deep learning algorithm called Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). To enhance the efficiency of conventional RNNs, the number of hidden neurons in an RNN is optimized using the developed SH-WOA. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed model is verified utilizing the entire dataset. Experimental results show that the developed model can effectively solve uncertain data classification, which minimizes the execution time and enhances efficiency.

In this paper, a new hybrid whale optimization algorithm (WOA) called WOA-DE is proposed to better balance the exploitation and exploration phases of optimization. Differential evolution (DE) is adopted as a local search strategy with the purpose of enhancing exploitation capability. The WOA-DE algorithm is then utilized to solve the problem of multilevel color image segmentation that can be considered as a challenging optimization task. Kapur’s entropy is used to obtain an efficient image segmentation method. In order to evaluate the performance of proposed algorithm, different images are selected for experiments, including natural images, satellite images and magnetic resonance (MR) images. The experimental results are compared with state-of-the-art meta-heuristic algorithms as well as conventional approaches. Several performance measures have been used such as average fitness values, standard deviation (STD), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM), feature similarity index (FSIM), Wilcoxon’s rank sum test, and Friedman test. The experimental results indicate that the WOA-DE algorithm is superior to the other meta-heuristic algorithms. In addition, to show the effectiveness of the proposed technique, the Otsu method is used for comparison.

Background: Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is an aspect of computer vision and image processing that finds images that are similar to a given query image in a large scale database using the visual contents of images such as colour, texture, shape, and spatial arrangement of regions of interest (ROIs) rather than manually annotated textual keywords. A CBIR system represents an image as a feature vector and measures the similarity between the image and other images in the database for the purpose of retrieving similar images with minimal human intervention. The CBIR system has been deployed in several fields such as fingerprint identification, biodiversity information systems, digital libraries, Architectural and Engineering design, crime prevention, historical research and medicine. There are several steps involved in the development of CBIR systems. Typical examples of these steps include feature extraction and selection, indexing and similarity measurement. Problem: However, each of these steps has its own method. Nevertheless, there is no universally acceptable method for retrieving similar images in CBIR. Aim: Hence, this study examines the diverse methods used in CBIR systems. This is with the aim of revealing the strengths and weakness of each of these methods. Methodology: Literatures that are related to the subject matter were sought in three scientific electronic databases namely CiteseerX, Science Direct and Google scholar. The Google search engine was used to search for documents and WebPages that are appropriate to the study. Results: The result of the study revealed that three main features are usually extracted during CBIR. These features include colour, shape and text. The study also revealed that diverse methods that can be used for extracting each of the features in CBIR. For instance, colour space, colour histogram, colour moments, geometric moment as well as colour correlogram can be used for extracting colour features. The commonly used methods for texture feature extraction include statistical, model-based, and transform-based methods while the edge method, Fourier transform and Zernike methods can be used for extracting shape features. Contributions: The paper highlights the benefits and challenges of diverse methods used in CBIR. This is with the aim of revealing the methods that are more efficient for CBIR. Conclusion: Each of the CBIR methods has their own advantages and disadvantages. However, there is a need for a further work that will validate the reliability and efficiency of each of the method.
