Introduction
Why
Digital image database growing rapidly in size
Example
Find a picture of me and jack on the bus
Application CBIR
Search for one specific image.
Broad
Photo Collections
Internet
Challenges
Semantic gap
The semantic gap is the lack of coincidence between the
information that one can extract from the visual data and the
interpretation that the same data have for a user in a given
situation.
User seeks semantic similarity, but the database can only
provide similarity by data processing.
Color
Local Shape
Texture
Color Image Processing
Approaches
Opponent color axes
HSV-representation
• Invariant under the orientation of the object with respect to the
illumination and camera direction.
Problems
Occlusion
Different Viewpoint
Approaches
Collect all properties that capture geometric
details in the image.
Invariant Descriptors.
Image Texture Processing
Problems
Offer little semantic referent.
Approaches
Markovian analysis
Wavelets
• Generated by groups of dilations or dilations and rotations
• Some semantic correspondent.
Great For
Satellite images
Images of documents
Description Of Content using Features
Grouping Data
Strong Segmentation
• Region T = 0 (object)
• Shape and Object features
Weak Segmentation
• T subset of 0
• Salient features
Sign Detection
• Signs Probabilities
Partitioning
• Global feature
Global and Accumulating Features
Structural feature
Feature values
captured in a graph
Lay-out descriptions
characterized by locations, size, and features.
Interpretation And Similarity
Semantic Interpretation
Derive interpretation from feature set.
Similarity
Similarity measure S
q,d between the images q and d
Sq,d = s(Fq,Fd).
s(Fq,Fd) = g( d(Fq,Fd) )
e.g. d can be just the Euclidean distance.
User Interaction
SQ similarity function.
Data partitioning
Distance-based technique

Relevance is subjective.
