In this paper we propose a novel approach to content-based image retrieval with relevance feedback, which is based on the random walker algorithm introduced in the context of inte...
Similarity search in image database is commonly implemented as nearest-neighbor search in a feature space of the images. For that purpose, a large number of different features as ...
Traditional content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems often fail to meet a user's need due to the `semantic gap' between the extracted features of the systems and the...
Distance metric is widely used in similarity estimation. In this paper we find that the most popular Euclidean and Manhattan distance may not be suitable for all data distribution...
This paper introduces BoostMap, a method that can significantly reduce retrieval time in image and video database systems that employ computationally expensive distance measures, ...
