In this paper, we propose a method for extracting color image features, called color index local auto-correlations. Pixel color is quantized and described sparsely in a manner sim...
We introduce Scene Structural Matrix (SSM), a novel image content descriptor and its application to invariant image retrieval. The SSM captures the overall structural characterist...
This paper introduces a web image dataset created by NUS’s Lab for Media Search. The dataset includes: (1) 269,648 images and the associated tags from Flickr, with a total of 5,...
This paper presents a unified approach to colour image coding, content-based indexing, and retrieval for database applications. The binary space partitioning (BSP) tree, tradition...
In this paper, two block-based texture methods are proposed for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). The approaches use the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) texture feature as the sourc...
