Weighted Link Analysis for Logo and Trademark Image Retrieval on the Web
Epimenides Voutsakis, Euripides G. M. Petrakis, Evangelos Milios · 2005
Image retrieval on the Web requires that important (authoritative) images satisfying the query selection criteria are assigned higher ranking over other relevant images. PicASHOW (Lempel and Soffer, 2002) achieves this goal using link information alone. This work proposes WPicASHOW (weighted PicASHOW), a weighted scheme for co-citation analysis that incorporates within the link analysis method of PicASHOW the text and image content of the queries and of the Web pages. WPicASHOW is implemented and integrated into a fully automated Web retrieval system for logo and trademark images.
