To facilitate the decision-making in the health-care and the related areas, in this paper, a two-step content-based medical image retrieval algorithm is proposed. Firstly, in the preprocessing step, the image segmentation is performed to distinguish image objects, and on the basis of the ...展开更多

How to fast retrieve desired similar images precisely from the Internet scale image/video databases is the most important retrieval control target. In this paper, a cloud based content-based image retrieval （CBIR） scheme is presented. Database-categorizing based on weighted-inverted index （DCWII） and database f＇dtering algorithm （DFA） is used to speed up the features matching process. In the DCWII, the weights are assigned to discrete cosine transform （DCT） coefficients histograms and the database is categorized by weighted features. In addition, the DFA filters out the irrelevant image in the database to reduce unnecessary computation loading for features matching. Experiments show that the proposed CBIR scheme outperforms previous work in the precision-recall performance and maintains mean average precision （mAP） about 0.678 in the large-scale database comprising one million images. Our scheme also can reduce about 50% to 85% retrieval time by pre-filtering the database, which helps to improve the efficiency of retrieval systems.展开更多

The proposed approach uses the local binary pattern （LBP） texture feature and a block based scheme. The query and database images are divided into equally sized blocks, from which LBP histograms are extracted. The block histograms are then compared by using the Chi-square distance. Experimental results show that the LBP representation provides a powerful tool for high resolution satellite images （HRSI） retrieval.展开更多
