We propose a new efficient indexing scheme, called the HG-tree, to support content-based retrieval in image databases. Image content is represented by a point in a multidimensional...
Color histograms are used to compare images in many applications. Their advantages are efficiency, and insensitivity to small changes in camera viewpoint. However, color histogram...
Technology in the field of digital media generates huge amounts of non-textual information, audio, video, and images, along with more familiar textual information. The potential f...
Automatic image annotation techniques that try to identify the objects in images usually need the images to be segmented first, especially when specifically annotating image reg...
A new approach is presented for partitioning an image database by classifying and indexing the convex hull shapes and the number of region concavities. The result is a significant...
