IMAGE: Region-Color Based Image Retrieval Toolbox
M. V. Sudhamani, Chitra Venugopal · 2007
This paper discusses the region based image retrieval from databases based on the dominant color descriptor. Region color feature is extracted using mean shift algorithm. To efficiently retrieve images a novel cluster-based R*-Tree indexing method is proposed and the efficiency is compared with R*-Tree and sequential search. Experimental results show the performance of the proposed method. The toolbox named IMAGE is developed in Java and supports query-by-example.
