Content-Based Image Retrieval using Color Quantization and Angle Representation
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2014, Vol 13, Issue 10
Abstract
An efficient non-uniform color quantization and similarity measurement methods are proposed to enhance the content-based image retrieval (CBIR) applications. The HSV color space is selected because it is close to human visual perception system, and a non-uniform color method is proposed to quantize an image into 37 colors. The marker histogram (MH) vector of size 296 values is generated by segmenting the quantized image into 8 regions (multiplication of 45°) and count the occurrences of the quantized colors in their particular angles. To cope with rotated images, an incremental displacement to the MH is applied 7 times. To find similar images, we proposed a new similarity measurement and other 4 existing metrics. A uniform color quantization of related work is implemented too and compared to our quantization method. One-hundred test images are selected from the Corel-1000 images database. Our experimental results conclude high retrieving precision ratios compared to other techniques.
