Abstract The effective management and exploitation of multimedia documents requires the extraction of the underlying semantics. Multimedia analysis algorithms can produce fairly ri...
Abstract. This paper explores how to predict query difficulty for contextual image retrieval. We reformulate the problem as the task of predicting how difficult to represent a quer...
We describe our experiments for the Image CLEF medical retrieval task. Our efforts were focused on the initial visual search. A content based approach was followed. We used textur...

In this paper, we propose a semantic-meaningful approach for region-based image retrieval in image database. Our retrieval system is based on wavelet transform for its decompositi...
Concept learning in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems is a challenging task. This paper presents an active concept learning approach based on mixture model to deal with...
