Content-based image retrieval system using neural network

Abstract

Visual information retrieval has become a major research area due to increasing rate at which images are generated in many application. This paper addresses an important problems related to the content-based images retrieval. It concerns the vector representation of images and its proper use in image retrieval. Indeed, we propose a new model of content-based image retrieval allowing to integrate theories of neural network on a vector space model, where each low level query can be transformed into a score vector. Preliminary results obtained show that our proposed model is effective in a comparative study on two dataset Corel and Caltech-UCSD.
