A visual codebook serves as a fundamental component in many state-of-the-art computer vision systems. Most existing codebooks are built based on quantizing local feature descriptors extracted from training images. Subsequently, each image is represented as a high-dimensional bag-of-words histogram. Such highly redundant image description lacks efficiency in both storage and retrieval, in which only...
In this work, we described a new two-stage hierarchical framework for mammogram retrieval. We tested the proposed approach on the reference library from USF-DDSM. For each query ROI (region of interest), the proposed scheme first computes its 14 texture and shape features, then the voting method based on five classifiers is used to classify the ROIs in the reference library, this phase eliminates...
Latent semantic indexing (LSI), as a popular textual information retrieval approach, has been used heavily for many years. However, the use of the approach in image retrieval has been limited. In this paper, a method of using LSI in combination with the salient image representation based on a saliency-based bottom-up visual attention computational model (VACM) motivated by visual physiological experimental...
Salient region of the image, which is composed of salient or interest points, is the most informative part of the image. In this paper, a saliency-based bottom-up visual attention computational model motivated by visual physiological experimental results is used to detect salient region and extract salient points of images. Meanwhile, a method to select number of the salient points to be extracted...
