Abstract

Searching test image from image databases using features extraction from the content is currently an active research area. In this work, we present novel feature extraction approaches for content-based image retrieval, when the query image is color image. To facilitate robust man-machine interfaces, we accept query images with color attributes. Special attention is given to the similarity measure with different distance matrices properties since the test image and object image from database finding the distance measuring. Several applicable techniques within the literature are studied for these conditions.
The goal of this paper is to present the user with a subset of images that are more similar to the object image. One of the most important aspects of the proposed methods is the accuracy measurement of the query image with different database images. The method significantly improves the feature extraction process and enables it, to be used for other computer vision applications.
