Eigen fuzzy sets and image information retrieval
Ferdinando Di Martino, Salvatore Sessa, Hajime Nobuhara · 2005
An image can be interpreted as a fuzzy relation by normalizing the values of its pixels. We use the greatest eigen fuzzy set (for short, GEFS) with respect to the max-min composition and the smallest eigen fuzzy set (for short, SEFS) with respect to the min-max composition of this fuzzy relation for resolution of problems of image information retrieval. The experiments are executed on some images extracted from "view sphere database". Based over GEFS and SEFS, a similarity measure is introduced for comparison between the sample image and the retrieved images.
