Fast Image Retrieval of Textile Industrial Accessory Based on Multi-Feature Fusion

A hierarchical retrieval scheme of the accessory image database is proposed based on textile industrial accessory contour feature and region feature. At first smallest enclosed rectangle[1] feature (degree of accessory coordination) is used to filter the image database to decouple the image search scope. After the accessory contour information and region information are extracted, the fusion multi-feature of the centroid distance Fourier descriptor and distance distribution histogram is adopted to finish image retrieval accurately. All the features above are invariable under translation, scaling and rotation. Results from the test on the image database including 1,000 accessory images demonstrate that the method is effective and practical with high accuracy and fast speed.

An Efficient Deep Learning-based Content-based Image Retrieval Framework

The use of massive image databases has increased drastically over the few years due to evolution of multimedia technology.Image retrieval has become one of the vital tools in image processing applications.Content-Based Image Retrieval(CBIR)has been widely used in varied applications.But,the results produced by the usage of a single image feature are not satisfactory.So,multiple image features are used very often for attaining better results.But,fast and effective searching for relevant images from a database becomes a challenging task.In the previous existing system,the CBIR has used the combined feature extraction technique using color auto-correlogram,Rotation-Invariant Uniform Local Binary Patterns(RULBP)and local energy.However,the existing system does not provide significant results in terms of recall and precision.Also,the computational complexity is higher for the existing CBIR systems.In order to handle the above mentioned issues,the Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix(GLCM)with Deep Learning based Enhanced Convolution Neural Network(DLECNN)is proposed in this work.The proposed system framework includes noise reduction using histogram equalization,feature extraction using GLCM,similarity matching computation using Hierarchal and Fuzzy c-Means(HFCM)algorithm and the image retrieval using DLECNN algorithm.The histogram equalization has been used for computing the image enhancement.This enhanced image has a uniform histogram.Then,the GLCM method has been used to extract the features such as shape,texture,colour,annotations and keywords.The HFCM similarity measure is used for computing the query image vector's similarity index with every database images.For enhancing the performance of this image retrieval approach,the DLECNN algorithm is proposed to retrieve more accurate features of the image.The proposed GLCM+DLECNN algorithm provides better results associated with high accuracy,precision,recall,f-measure and lesser complexity.From the experimental results,it is clearly observed that the proposed system provides efficient image retrieval for the given query image.

2D matrix based indexing with color spectralhistogram for efficient image retrieval

A novel content based image retrieval （CBIR） algorithmusing relevant feedback is presented. The proposed frameworkhas three major contributions： a novel feature descriptor calledcolor spectral histogram （CSH） to measure the similarity betweenimages; two-dimensional matrix based indexing approach proposedfor short-term learning （STL）; and long-term learning （LTL）.In general, image similarities are measured from feature representationwhich includes color quantization, texture, color, shapeand edges. However, CSH can describe the image feature onlywith the histogram. Typically the image retrieval process starts byfinding the similarity between the query image and the imagesin the database; the major computation involved here is that theselection of top ranking images requires a sorting algorithm to beemployed at least with the lower bound of O（n log n）. A 2D matrixbased indexing of images can enormously reduce the searchtime in STL. The same structure is used for LTL with an aim toreduce the amount of log to be maintained. The performance ofthe proposed framework is analyzed and compared with the existingapproaches, the quantified results indicates that the proposedfeature descriptor is more effectual than the existing feature descriptorsthat were originally developed for CBIR. In terms of STL,the proposed 2D matrix based indexing minimizes the computationeffort for retrieving similar images and for LTL, the proposed algorithmtakes minimum log information than the existing approaches.

Cross-Modal Hashing Retrieval Based on Deep Residual Network

In the era of big data rich inWe Media,the single mode retrieval system has been unable to meet people’s demand for information retrieval.This paper proposes a new solution to the problem of feature extraction and unified mapping of different modes:A Cross-Modal Hashing retrieval algorithm based on Deep Residual Network(CMHR-DRN).The model construction is divided into two stages:The first stage is the feature extraction of different modal data,including the use of Deep Residual Network(DRN)to extract the image features,using the method of combining TF-IDF with the full connection network to extract the text features,and the obtained image and text features used as the input of the second stage.In the second stage,the image and text features are mapped into Hash functions by supervised learning,and the image and text features are mapped to the common binary Hamming space.In the process of mapping,the distance measurement of the original distance measurement and the common feature space are kept unchanged as far as possible to improve the accuracy of Cross-Modal Retrieval.In training the model,adaptive moment estimation(Adam)is used to calculate the adaptive learning rate of each parameter,and the stochastic gradient descent(SGD)is calculated to obtain the minimum loss function.The whole training process is completed on Caffe deep learning framework.Experiments show that the proposed algorithm CMHR-DRN based on Deep Residual Network has better retrieval performance and stronger advantages than other Cross-Modal algorithms CMFH,CMDN and CMSSH.

Shift Invariance Level Comparison of Several Contourlet Transforms and Their Texture Image Retrieval Systems

In this paper, we proposed a metric to measure the shift invariance of the three different contourlet transforms. And then, using the same structure texture image retrieval system which use subband coefficients energy, standard deviation and kurtosis features with Canberra distance, we gave a comparison of their texture description abilities. Experimental results show that contourlet-2.3 texture image retrieval system has almost retrieval rates with non-sub sampled contourlet system;the two systems have better retrieval results than the original contourlet retrieval system. On the other hand, for the relatively lower redundancy, we recommend using contourlet- 2.3 as texture description transform.

A comprehensive review of significant researches on content based indexing and retrieval of visual information

Developments in multimedia technologies have paved way for the storage of huge collections of video doc- uments on computer systems. It is essential to design tools for content-based access to the documents, so as to allow an efficient exploitation of these collections. Content based anal- ysis provides a flexible and powerful way to access video data when compared with the other traditional video analysis tech- niques. The area of content based video indexing and retrieval （CBVIR）, focusing on automating the indexing, retrieval and management of video, has attracted extensive research in the last decade. CBVIR is a lively area of research with endur- ing acknowledgments from several domains. Herein a vital assessment of contemporary researches associated with the content-based indexing and retrieval of visual information. In this paper, we present an extensive review of significant researches on CBV1R. Concise description of content based video analysis along with the techniques associated with the content based video indexing and retrieval is presented.

Hepatic CT image retrieval based on the combination of Gabor filters and support vector machine

Content-based image retrieval has been an active area of research for more than ten years. Gabor schemes and support vector machine （SVM） method have been proven effective in image representation and clas-sification. In this paper, we propose a retrieval scheme based on Gabor filters and SVMs for hepatic computed tomography （CT） images query. In our experiments, a batch of hepatic CT images containing several types of CT findings are used for the retrieval test. Precision comparison between our scheme and existing methods is presented.

On-line beam diagnostics based on single-shot beam splitting phase retrieval

We propose a novel on-line beam diagnostic method based on single-shot beam splitting phase retrieval. The incident beam to be measured is diffracted into many replicas by a Dammann grating and then propagates through a weakly scattering phase plate with a known structure; the exiting beams propagate along their original direction and form an array of diffraction patterns on the detector plane. By applying the intensity of diffraction patterns into an iterative algorithm and calculating between the grating plane, weakly scattering plane, and detector plane, the complex field of the incident beam can be reconstructed rapidly; the feasibility of this method is verified experimentally with wavelengths of 1053 and 632.8 nm.

Hyperspectral feature recognition based on kernel PCA and relational perspective map

A novel joint kernel principal component analysis （PCA） and relational perspective map （RPM） method called KPmapper is proposed for hyperspectral dimensionality reduction and spectral feature recognition. Kernel PCA is used to analyze hyperspectral data so that the major information corresponding to features can be better extracted. RPM is used to visualize hyperspectral data through two-dimensional （2D） maps, and it is an efficient approach to discover regularities and extract information by partitioning the data into pieces and mapping them onto a 2D space. The experimental results prove that the KPmapper algorithm can effectively obtain the intrinsic features in nonlinear high dimensional data. It is useful and impressing for dimensionality reduction and spectral feature recognition.

Spectral feature matching based on partial least squares

We investigate the spectral approaches to the problem of point pattern matching, and present a spectral feature descriptors based on partial least square （PLS）. Given keypoints of two images, we define the position similarity matrices respectively, and extract the spectral features from the matrices by PLS, which indicate geometric distribution and inner relationships of the keypoints. Then the keypoints matching is done by bipartite graph matching. The experiments on both synthetic and real-world data corroborate the robustness and invariance of the algorithm.
