Abstract

The semantic relationship of visual objects plays an important role in determining the context and semantics of an image. In this paper, a method of classifying semantic relationships between objects on image is proposed and applied to a semantic-based image retrieval system. Firstly, the visual objects on an input image are extracted and classified using the R-CNN network model. Secondly, a semantic description of the image is determined by the KD-Tree structure. From that, a model of classifying semantic relationships and extracting semantic descriptions for an input image is proposed to retrieve a set of similar images by semantics. To prove the correctness of the proposed theoretical basis, an experiment was built on the COCO and Flickr image data sets with an average image retrieval performance of 0.6972, and 0.7794, respectively. Experimental results are compared with other works on the same data set to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method and can be applied to multi-object image data sets.
