Abstract
Image Recommendation is an important feature for search engine as tremendous amount images are available online. It is necessary to retrieve relevant images to meet user's requirement. In this paper, we present an algorithm Image Recommendation with Absorbing Markov Chain (IRAbMC) to retrieve relevant images for user input query. Images are ranked by calculating keyword relevance probability between annotated keywords from log and keywords of user input query. Absorbing Markov chain is used to calculate keyword relevance. Experiments results show that the IRAbMC algorithm outperforms Markovian Semantic Indexing (MSI) method with improved relevance score of retrieved ranked images
