An Effective Similarity Measure for Content-Based Image Retrieval using MPEG-7 Dominant Color Descriptor
Jeong Yong Lee, Jongho Nang · 2010
This paper proposes an effective similarity measure for content-based image retrieval using MPEG-7 DCD. The proposed method can measure the similarity of images with the percentage of dominant colors extracted from images. As the result of experiments, we achieved a significant improvement of 18.92% with global DCD and 47.22% with local DCD in ANMRR than the result by QHDM. This result shows that the proposed method is an effective similarity measure for content-based image retrieval. Especially, our method is useful for region-based image retrieval.
