Image Retrieval Using Content Information

Abstract

With the rapid development of the multimedia technologies such as compression and digital image sensor technologies, it is more and more necessary to build up a large database. Therefore robust and efficient methodology for image retrieval techniques has gained the attention of researchers. In the last few years the booming interest in the web images has paved a way to make people on content based Image retrieval techniques and also supporting systems for the retrieval process. In this paper, a general review of Content based image retrieval process by comparing with existing retrieval techniques along with experimental results and applications are presented. Some of the major challenges in the adaptation of content based image retrieval algorithms are also discussed.
