An Efficient CBIR Technique with YUV Color Space and Texture Features

In areas of government, academia and hospitals, large collections of digital images are being created. These image collections are the product of digitizing existing collections of analogue photographs, diagrams, drawings, paintings, and prints. Retrieving the specified similar image from a large dataset is very difficult. A new image retrieval system is presented in this paper, which used YUV color space and wavelet transform approach for feature extraction. Firstly, the color space is quantified in non-equal intervals, then constructed one dimension feature vector and represented the color feature. Similarly, the texture feature extraction is obtained by using wavelet. Finally, color feature and texture feature are combined based on wavelet transform. The image retrieval experiments specified that visual features were sensitive for different type images. The color features opted to the rich color image with simple variety. Texture feature opted to the complex images. At the same time, experiments reveal that YUV texture feature based on wavelet transform has better effective performance and stability than the RGB and HSV. The same work is performed for the RGB and HSV color space and their results are compared with the proposed system. The result shows that CBIR with the YUV color space retrieves image with more accuracy and reduced retrieval time. Keywords---Content based image retrieval, Wavelet transforms, YUV, HSV, RG

Efficient Item Image Retrieval System

Content based image retrieval system is a very effective means of searching and retrieving similar images from large database. This method is faster and easy to implement compare to text based image retrieval method. Ability to extract discriminative low level feature from these images and use them with appropriate classifier is factor in determining retrieval result. In this work efficient item image retrieval system is proposed. The system utilizes Haar wavelet transform, Phase Congruency and Support Vector Machine. Haar wavelet transform acted on image to form four sub-images. Texture feature is extracted from smaller image blocks from detailed bands and it was combined with shape feature from approximation band to form feature vector. Feature distance margin is achieved between query image and images in the database using Support Vector Machine (SVM). The effectiveness of the system is confirmed from output retrieval results

Content-based image retrieval of museum images

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) is becoming more and more important with the advance of multimedia and imaging technology. Among many retrieval features associated with CBIR, texture retrieval is one of the most difficult. This is mainly because no satisfactory quantitative definition of texture exists at this time, and also because of the complex nature of the texture itself. Another difficult problem in CBIR is query by low-quality images, which means attempts to retrieve images using a poor quality image as a query. Not many content-based retrieval systems have addressed the problem of query by low-quality images. Wavelet analysis is a relatively new and promising tool for signal and image analysis. Its time-scale representation provides both spatial and frequency information, thus giving extra information compared to other image representation schemes. This research aims to address some of the problems of query by texture and query by low quality images by exploiting all the advantages that wavelet analysis has to offer, particularly in the context of museum image collections. A novel query by low-quality images algorithm is presented as a solution to the problem of poor retrieval performance using conventional methods. In the query by texture problem, this thesis provides a comprehensive evaluation on wavelet-based texture method as well as comparison with other techniques. A novel automatic texture segmentation algorithm and an improved block oriented decomposition is proposed for use in query by texture. Finally all the proposed techniques are integrated in a content-based image retrieval application for museum image collections

Content Based Image Retrieval based on Shape with Texture Features

In areas of state, domain and hospitals, massive collections of digital pictures are being created. These image collections are the merchandise of digitizing existing collections of analogue images, diagrams, drawings, paintings, and prints. Retrieving the specified similar image from a large dataset is very difficult. A new image retrieval system is obtainable in this paper, for feature extraction HSV color space and wavelet transform approach are used. Initially constructed one dimension feature vector and represented the color feature it is made by that the color space is quantified in non-equal intervals. Then with the help of wavelet texture feature extraction is obtained. At last by using of wavelet transform combined the color feature and texture feature method. The illustration features are susceptible for different type images in image retrieval experiments. The color features opted to the rich color image with simple variety. Texture feature opted to the complex images. At the same time, experiments reveal that HSV texture feature based on wavelet transform has better effective performance and stability than the RGB. The same work is performed for the RGB color space and their results are compared with the proposed system. The result shows that CBIR with the HSV color space is retrieves image with more accuracy and reduced retrieval time. Keywords--Content Based Image Retrieval, HSV, RG

Analisis dan Implementasi image retrieval menggunakan sorted wavelet histogram

ABSTRAKSI: Dengan semakin berkembangnya teknologi informasi telah banyak dikembangkannya berbagai metode pencarian content based, yaitu sistem Content Based image retrieval (CBIR) yang merupakan mekanisme pencarian query image, ini disebabkan pencarian image berdasarkan text sudah tidak efektif lagi.Pada tugas akhir ini diimplementasikan sistem CBIR, untuk mendapatkan fitur imagenya digunakan metode pengekstrakan fitur dari citra grayscale yaitu Sorted Wavelet histogram. Suatu pengembangan teknik pencarian citra dengan menerapkan teknik histogram pada koefisien hasil transformasi wavelet. Dalam penerapan transformasi wavelet ternyata masih terdapat fitur yang bisa dianalisa yakni texture. Sehingga pada proses retrieval kedua hasil ekstraksi ini dapat digabungkan untuk mendapatkan citra yang relevan dengan citra query. Hitung tingkat similarity dengan metode similarity, yaitu eucledian distance antara image query dengan image database.

A Review of Wavelet Based Fingerprint Image Retrieval

A digital image is composed of pixels and information about brightness of image and RGB triples are used to encode color information. Image retrieval problem encountered when searching and retrieving images that is relevant to a user’s request from a database. In Content based image retrieval, input goes in the form of an image. In these images, different features are extracted and then the other images from database are retrieved accordingly. Biometric distinguishes the people by their physical or behavioral qualities. Fingerprints are viewed as a standout amongst the most solid for human distinguishment because of their uniqueness and ingenuity. To retrieve fingerprint images on the basis of their textural features,by using different wavelets. From the input fingerprint image, first of all center point area is selected and then its textural features are extracted and stored in database. When a query image comes then again its center point is selected and then its texture feature are extracted. Then these features are matched for similarity and then resultant image is displayed.

In this paper a new visual feature, binary wavelet transform based histogram (BWTH) is proposed for content based image retrieval. BWTH is facilitated with the color as well as texture properties. BWTH exhibits the advantages of binary wavelet transform and histogram. The performance of CBIR system with proposed feature is observed on Corel 1000 (DB1) and Corel 2450 (DB2) natural image database in color as well as gray space. The results analysis of DB1 database illustrates the better average precision and average recall of proposed method in RGB space (73.82%, 44.29%) compared to color histogram (70.85%, 42.16%), auto correlogram (66.15%, 39.52%) and discrete wavelet transform (60.83%, 38.25%). In case of gray space also performance of proposed method (66.69%, 40.77%) is better compared to auto correlogram (57.20%, 35.31%), discrete wavelet transform (52.70%, 32.98%) and wavelet correlogram (64.3%, 38.0%). It is verified that in case of DB2 database also average precision, average recall and average retrieval rate of proposed method are significantly better
