Image retrieval has been popular for several years. There are different system designs for content based image retrieval (CBIR) system. This paper propose a novel system architecture for CBIR system which combines techniques include content-based image and color analysis, as well as data mining techniques. To our best knowledge, this is the first time to propose segmentation and grid module, feature extraction module, K-means and k-nearest neighbor clustering algorithms and bring in the neighborhood module to build the CBIR system. Concept of neighborhood color analysis module which also recognizes the side of every grids of image is first contributed in this paper. The results show the CBIR systems performs well in the training and it also indicates there contains many interested issue to be optimized in the query stage of image retrieval.

An efficient access and indexing framework, called Affinity Hybrid Tree (AH-Tree), is proposed which combines feature and metric spaces in a novel way. The proposed framework helps to organize large image databases and support popular multimedia retrieval mechanisms like Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). It is efficient in terms of computational overhead and fairly accurate in producing query results close to human perception. AH-Tree, by being able to introduce the high level semantic image relationship as it is in its index structure, solves the problem of translating the content-similarity measurement into feature level equivalence which is both painstaking and error-prone. Algorithms for similarity (range and k-nearest neighbor) queries are implemented and extensive experiments are performed which produces encouraging results with low I/O and distance computations and high precision of query results.

Feature selection is an important pre-processing technique in the pattern recognition domain. This article proposes a hybridization between Genetic Algorithm (GA) and the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) for solving the feature selection problem in Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) applied to dermatological images. In the first step, we preprocess and segment the input image, then we derive color and texture features characterizing healthy skin and the segmented skin lesion. At this stage, a binary GA is used to evolve chromosome subsets whose fitness is evaluated by a Logistic Regression classifier. The optimal identified features are then used to feed LDA for a CBIR system, based on a K-Nearest Neighbor classification. To assess the proposed approach, the authors have opted for a K-fold cross validation method on a database of 1097 images of melanomas and other skin lesions. As a result, the authors obtained a reduced number of features and an improved CBDIR system compared to PCA, LDA and ICA methods.

Based on the shape of the image retrieval occupy an important position in the content-based image retrieval, and studied architecture, content-based image retrieval system, ie research-based image retrieval key technologies shape features for image noise in addition to the morphological processing; image segmentation; shape-based feature extraction and regional boundaries and description techniques and similarity measure techniques. The results show that the algorithm can effectively identify the characteristics of the image.
