The rapid advancement and exponential evolution in the multimedia applications raised the attentional research on content-based image retrieval (CBIR). The technique has a significant role for searching and finding similar images to the query image through extracting the visual features. In this paper, an approach of two layers of search has been developed which is known as two-layer based CBIR. The first layer is concerned with comparing the query image to all images in the dataset depending on extracting the local feature using bag of features (BoF) mechanism which leads to retrieve certain most similar images to the query image. In other words, first step aims to eliminate the most dissimilar images to the query image to reduce the range of search in the dataset of images. In the second layer, the query image is compared to the images obtained in the first layer based on extracting the (texture and color)-based features. The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) were used as texture features. However, for the color features, three different color spaces were used, namely RGB, HSV, and YCbCr. The color spaces are utilized by calculating the mean and entropy for each channel separately. Corel-1K was used for evaluating the proposed approach. The experimental results prove the superior performance of the proposed concept of two-layer over the current state-of-the-art techniques in terms of precision rate in which achieved 82.15% and 77.27% for the top-10 and top-20, respectively.

Content based image retrieval (CBIR), is an application of real-world computer vision domain where from a query image, similar images are searched from the database. The research presented in this paper aims to find out best features and classification model for optimum results for CBIR system.Five different set of feature combinations in two different color domains (i.e., RGB & HSV) are compared and evaluated using Neural Network Classifier, where best results obtained are 88.2% in terms of classifier accuracy. Color moments feature used comprises of: Mean, Standard Deviation,Kurtosis and Skewness. Histogram features is calculated via 10 probability bins. Wang-1k dataset is used to evaluate the CBIR system performance for image retrieval.Research concludes that integrated multi-level 3D color-texture feature yields most accurate results and also performs better in comparison to individually computed color and texture features.

In this paper, we proposed a fusion feature extraction method for content based image retrieval. The feature is extracted by focusing on the texture and shape features of the visual image by using the Local Binary Pattern (LBP – texture feature) and Edge Histogram Descriptor (EHD – shape feature). The SVD is used for decreasing the number of the feature vector of images. The Kd-tree is used for reducing the retrieval time. The input to this system is a query image and Database (the reference images) and the output is the top n most similar images for the query image. The proposed system is evaluated by using (precision and recall) to measure the retrieval effectiveness. The values of the recall are between [43% –93%] and the average recall is 64.3%. The values of precision are between [30%-100%] and the average is 72.86% for the entire system and for both databases

The Given

Content Based Image Retrieval is an interesting and most emerging field in the area of ‘Image Search’, finding similar images for the given query image from the image database. Current approaches include the use of color, texture and shape information. Considering these features in individual, most of the retrievals are poor in results and sometimes we are getting some non relevant images for the given query image. So, this dissertation proposes a method in which combination of color and texture features of the image is used to improve the retrieval results in terms of its accuracy. For color, color histogram based color correlogram technique and for texture wavelet decomposition technique is used. Color and texture based image

Applications for retrieving similar images from a large collection of images have increased significantly in various fields with the rapid advancement of digital communication technologies and exponential evolution in the usage of the Internet. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) is a technique to find similar images on the basis of extracting the visual features such as color, texture, and/or shape from the images themselves. During the retrieval process, features and descriptors of the query image are compared to those of the images in the database to rank each indexed image accordingly to its distance to the query image. This paper has developed a new CBIR technique which entails two layers, called bi-layers. In the first layer, all images in the database are compared to the query image based on the bag of features (BoF) technique, and hence, the M most similar images to the query image are retrieved. In the second layer, the M images obtained from the first layer are compared to the query image based on the color, texture, and shape features to retrieve the N number of the most similar images to the query image. The proposed technique has been evaluated using a well-known dataset of images called Corel-1K. The obtained results revealed the impact of exploring the idea of bi-layers in improving the precision rate in comparison to the current state-of-the-art techniques in which achieved precision rate of 82.27% and 76.13% for top-10 and top-20, respectively.

There has been a profound expansion of digital data both in terms of quality and heterogeneity. Trivial searching techniques of images by using metadata, keywords or tags are not sufficient. Efficient Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is certainly the only solution to this problem. Difference between colors of two images can be an important metric to measure their similarity or dissimilarity. Content-based Image Retrieval is all about generating signatures of images in database and comparing the signature of the query image with these stored signatures. Color histogram can be used as signature of an image and used to compare two images based on certain distance metric.In this study, COREL Database is used for an exhaustive study of various distance metrics on different color spaces. Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, Histogram Intersection and Vector Cosine Angle distances are used to compare histograms in both RGB and HSV color spaces. So, a total of 8 distance metrics for comparison of images for the sake of CBIR are discussed in this work.

Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems retrieve images from the image repository or database in which they are visually similar to the query image. CBIR plays an important role in various fields such as medical diagnosis, crime prevention, web-based searching, and architecture. CBIR consists mainly of two stages: The first is the extraction of features and the second is the matching of similarities. There are several ways to improve the efficiency and performance of CBIR, such as segmentation, relevance feedback, expansion of queries, and fusion-based methods. The literature has suggested several methods for combining and fusing various image descriptors. In general, fusion strategies are typically divided into two groups, namely early and late fusion strategies. Early fusion is the combination of image features from more than one descriptor into a single vector before the similarity computation, while late fusion refers either to the combination of outputs produced by various retrieval systems or to the combination of different rankings of similarity. In this study, a group of color and texture features is proposed to be used for both methods of fusion strategies. Firstly, an early combination of eighteen color features and twelve texture features are combined into a single vector representation and secondly, the late fusion of three of the most common distance measures are used in the late fusion stage. Our experimental results on two common image datasets show that our proposed method has good performance retrieval results compared to the traditional way of using single features descriptor and also has an acceptable retrieval performance compared to some of the state-of-the-art methods. The overall accuracy of our proposed method is 60.6% and 39.07% for Corel-1K and GHIM-10K ‎datasets, respectively.

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system generally retrieves images based on the matching of the query image from all the images of the database. This exhaustive matching and searching slow down the image retrieval process. In this paper, a fast and effective CBIR system is proposed which uses supervised learning-based image management and retrieval techniques. It utilizes machine learning approaches as a prior step for speeding up image retrieval in the large database. For the implementation of this, first, we extract statistical moments and the orthogonal-combination of local binary patterns (OC-LBP)-based computationally light weighted color and texture features. Further, using some ground truth annotation of images, we have trained the multi-class support vector machine (SVM) classifier. This classifier works as a manager and categorizes the remaining images into different libraries. However, at the query time, the same features are extracted and fed to the SVM classifier. SVM detects the class of query and searching is narrowed down to the corresponding library. This supervised model with weighted Euclidean Distance (ED) filters out maximum irrelevant images and speeds up the searching time. This work is evaluated and compared with the conventional model of the CBIR system on two benchmark databases, and it is found that the proposed work is significantly encouraging in terms of retrieval accuracy and response time for the same set of used features.

Of late, the amount of digital X-ray images that are produced in hospitals is increasing incredibly fast. Efficient storing, processing and retrieving of X-ray images have thus become an important research topic. With the exponential need that arises in the search for the clinically relevant and visually similar medical images over a vast database, the arena of digital imaging techniques is forced to provide a potential and path-breaking methodology in the midst of technical advancements so as to give the best match in accordance to the user’s query image. CBIR helps doctors to compare X-rays of their current patients with images from similar cases and they could also use these images as queries to find the similar entries in the X-ray database. This paper focuses on six different classes of X-ray images, viz. chest, skull, foot, spine, pelvic and palm for efficient image retrieval. Initially the various X-rays are automatically classified into the six-different classes using BPNN and SVM as classifiers and GLCM co-efficient as features for classification. Indexing is done to make the retrieval fast and retrieval of similar images is based on the city block distance.
