A Content Based Image Retrieval Approach Based On Color and Shape

EL ASNAOUI Khalid, CHAWKI Youness, AKSASSE Brahim, OUANAN Mohammed

Abstract


The problem that we consider in this paper is about the indexing images in a large database. In this context, we propose a new technique for indexing based on the combination of color and shape. This is an improvement of the 2-D histogram method with statistical moments by integrating the shape using Angular Radial Transform (ART) and by applying distributed computation to research image. This model reduces the searching time and provides a rapid response. Several experiments were performed using two different databases: Wang and Coil-100. In addition, the results have demonstrated the effectiveness and the robustness of the new method to the two databases with the best rate of average precision.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
