Nevertheless, since features of CNN have altered orientation, training a CBIR system to detect and correct the angle is complex. While it is possible to construct rotation-invariant features by hand, retrieval accuracy will be low because hand engineering only creates low-level features, while deep learning methods build high-level and low-level features simultaneously. This paper presents a novel approach that combines a deep learning orientation angle detection model with the CBIR feature extraction model to correct the rotation angle of any image.
