Description
A Hybrid Approach for Iterative Image Retrieval with Keywords and Visual Features
Gen, Jr-Yu
Abstract: QBK is an image search approach based on text description. The advantage of QBK is that it is based on semantics of mankind, and assisted by the matured text-based search technology. However, the disadvantage of QBK is that the result of image search is not affected by the content of the image itself. Besides, the text description does not represent the content of image fully.
CBIR is another image search approach which is based on the visual features of image itself. The advantage of CBIR is that the result of image search is all based on the content of the image and, it is objectively. The disadvantage of CBIR is that the basic technology is not matured enough. So the approach cannot imitate the recognition ability of human beings.
Our approach is the combination of QBK and CBIR which integrates the advantage of visual features and text description. This approach not only access the semantics, but also base on the content of image.
We extract the visual features with the method of CBIR from the result images of the QBK system. And then the images will be clustered by their visual features. Finally, users can iteratively search with keyword suggestions which are extracted from the description of clustered images.
