Image Retrieval with Relational Semantic Indexing Color and Gray Images
Due to the development of digital technology large number of image is available in web and personal database and it take more time to classify and organize them. In AIA assigns label to image content with this image is automatically classified and desired image can be retrieved. Image retrieval is the one of the growing research area. To retrieve image Text and content based methods used. In recent research focus on annotation based retrieval. Image annotation represents assigning keywords to image based on its contents and it use machine learning techniques. Using image content with more relevant keywords leads fast indexing and retrieval of image from large collection of image database. Many techniques have been proposed for the last decades and it gives some improvement in retrieval performance. In this proposed work Relational Semantic Indexing (RSI) based LQT technique reduces the search time and increase the retrieval performance. This proposed method includes segmentation, feature extraction, classification, and RSI based annotation steps. This proposed method compared against IAIA, and LSH algorithm
Learning Sparse Representations for Fruit Fly Gene Expression Pattern Image Annotation and Retreival
Background: Fruit fly embryogenesis is one of the best understood animal development systems, and the spatiotemporal gene expression dynamics in this process are captured by digital images. Analysis of these high-throughput images will provide novel insights into the functions, interactions, and networks of animal genes governing development. To facilitate comparative analysis, web-based interfaces have been developed to conduct image retrieval based on body part keywords and images. Currently, the keyword annotation of spatiotemporal gene expression patterns is conducted manually. However, this manual practice does not scale with the continuously expanding collection of images. In addition, existing image retrieval systems based on the expression patterns may be made more accurate using keywords.
Results: In this article, we adapt advanced data mining and computer vision techniques to address the key challenges in annotating and retrieving fruit fly gene expression pattern images. To boost the performance of image annotation and retrieval, we propose representations integrating spatial information and sparse features, overcoming the limitations of prior schemes.
Conclusions: We perform systematic experimental studies to evaluate the proposed schemes in comparison with current methods. Experimental results indicate that the integration of spatial information and sparse features lead to consistent performance improvement in image annotation, while for the task of retrieval, sparse features alone yields better results

Evaluation Methodologies for Visual Information Retrieval and Annotation
Die automatisierte Evaluation von Informations-Retrieval-Systemen erlaubt
Performanz und Qualität der Informationsgewinnung zu bewerten. Bereits in
den 60er Jahren wurden erste Methodologien für die system-basierte
Evaluation aufgestellt und in den Cranfield Experimenten überprüft.
Heutzutage gehören Evaluation, Test und Qualitätsbewertung zu einem aktiven
Forschungsfeld mit erfolgreichen Evaluationskampagnen und etablierten
Methoden. Evaluationsmethoden fanden zunächst in der Bewertung von
Textanalyse-Systemen Anwendung. Mit dem rasanten Voranschreiten der
Digitalisierung wurden diese Methoden sukzessive auf die Evaluation von
Multimediaanalyse-Systeme übertragen. Dies geschah häufig, ohne die
Evaluationsmethoden in Frage zu stellen oder sie an die veränderten
Gegebenheiten der Multimediaanalyse anzupassen. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt
sich mit der system-basierten Evaluation von Indizierungssystemen für
Bildkollektionen. Sie adressiert drei Problemstellungen der Evaluation von
Annotationen: Nutzeranforderungen für das Suchen und Verschlagworten von
Bildern, Evaluationsmaße für die Qualitätsbewertung von
Indizierungssystemen und Anforderungen an die Erstellung visueller
Testkollektionen. Am Beispiel der Evaluation automatisierter
Photo-Annotationsverfahren werden relevante Konzepte mit Bezug zu
Nutzeranforderungen diskutiert, Möglichkeiten zur Erstellung einer
zuverlässigen Ground Truth bei geringem Kosten- und Zeitaufwand vorgestellt
und Evaluationsmaße zur Qualitätsbewertung eingeführt, analysiert und
experimentell verglichen. Traditionelle Maße zur Ermittlung der Performanz
werden in vier Dimensionen klassifiziert. Evaluationsmaße vergeben
üblicherweise binäre Kosten für korrekte und falsche Annotationen. Diese
Annahme steht im Widerspruch zu der Natur von Bildkonzepten. Das gemeinsame
Auftreten von Bildkonzepten bestimmt ihren semantischen Zusammenhang und
von daher sollten diese auch im Zusammenhang auf ihre Richtigkeit hin
überprüft werden. In dieser Arbeit wird aufgezeigt, wie semantische
Ähnlichkeiten visueller Konzepte automatisiert abgeschätzt und in den
Evaluationsprozess eingebracht werden können. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit
inkludieren ein Nutzermodell für die konzeptbasierte Suche von Bildern,
eine vollständig bewertete Testkollektion und neue Evaluationsmaße für die
anforderungsgerechte Qualitätsbeurteilung von Bildanalysesystemen.Performance assessment plays a major role in the research on Information
Retrieval (IR) systems. Starting with the Cranfield experiments in the
early 60ies, methodologies for the system-based performance assessment
emerged and established themselves, resulting in an active research field
with a number of successful benchmarking activities. With the rise of the
digital age, procedures of text retrieval evaluation were often transferred
to multimedia retrieval evaluation without questioning their direct
applicability. This thesis investigates the problem of system-based
performance assessment of annotation approaches in generic image
collections. It addresses three important parts of annotation evaluation,
namely user requirements for the retrieval of annotated visual media,
performance measures for multi-label evaluation, and visual test
collections. Using the example of multi-label image annotation evaluation,
I discuss which concepts to employ for indexing, how to obtain a reliable
ground truth to moderate costs, and which evaluation measures are
appropriate. This is accompanied by a thorough analysis of related work on
system-based performance assessment in Visual Information Retrieval (VIR).
Traditional performance measures are classified into four dimensions and
investigated according to their appropriateness for visual annotation
evaluation. One of the main ideas in this thesis adheres to the common
assumption on the binary nature of the score prediction dimension in
annotation evaluation. However, the predicted concepts and the set of true
indexed concepts interrelate with each other. This work will show how to
utilise these semantic relationships for a fine-grained evaluation
scenario. Outcomes of this thesis result in a user model for concept-based
image retrieval, a fully assessed image annotation test collection, and a
number of novel performance measures for image annotation evaluation
A MEDICAL X-RAY IMAGE CLASSIFICATION AND RETRIEVAL SYSTEM
Medical image retrieval systems have gained high interest in the scientific community due to the advances in medical imaging technologies. The semantic gap is one of the biggest challenges in retrieval from large medical databases. This paper presents a retrieval system that aims at addressing this challenge by learning the main concept of every image in the medical database. The proposed system contains two modules: a classification/annotation and a retrieval module. The first module aims at classifying and subsequently annotating all medical images automatically. SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) and LBP (Local Binary Patterns) are two descriptors used in this process. Image-based and patch-based features are used as approaches to build a bag of words (BoW) using these descriptors. The impact on the classification performance is also evaluated. The results show that the classification accuracy obtained incorporating image-based integration techniques is higher than the accuracy obtained by other techniques. The retrieval module enables the search based on text, visual and multimodal queries. The text-based query supports retrieval of medical images based on categories, as it is carried out via the category that the images were annotated with, within the classification module. The multimodal query applies a late fusion technique on the retrieval results obtained from text-based and image-based queries. This fusion is used to enhance the retrieval performance by incorporating the advantages of both text-based and content-based image retrieval
