In this paper, search result list synthesis method is proposed using borda count method for still image retrieval based on MPEG-7 descriptors. MPEG-7 standardizes descriptors that extract feature information from media data. In many cases, using a single descriptor lacks of correctness, it is suggested to use multiple descriptors to enhance retrieval efficiency. In this paper, retrieval efficiency enhancement is achieved by combining multiple search results which are from each descriptor. In combining search result, newly calculated borda count method is proposed. Comparing current frequency compensated calculation, rank considered frequency compensation is used to score animage in database. This combining method is considered in Content based image retrieval system with relevance feedback algorithm which uses high level information from system user. In each relevance iteration step, adoptive borda count method is used to calculate score of images.
