New approach to cultural relic image retrieval
Mingquan Zhou · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2005
Concerning about the characteristic of the cultural relic images, a new approach was proposed to cultural relic image retrieval. For feature extraction, fuzzy color histogram based on segmented image was used. Fuzzy color histogram (FCH )considers the color similarity of each pixel's color associated to all the histogram bins through fuzzy-set membership function. The strategy of using segmented image represented not only the color properties but also the shape properties. A new similarity measurement-mutual information distance was proposed. The proposed method was proved to be an effective one in terms of the evaluation parameter AVRR/IAVRR.
