Abstract

In CBIR, images are represented by certain low-level features that describe their color, texture and shape. The combination of different image features in a global distance measurement requires normalized feature vectors. Nowaday, several normalization methods have been proposed for CBIR such as min-max, 3-sigma, and 3sigma-FCM. In this paper, we propose another method which is an upgrade from the 3sigma-FCM method. Experimentation has shown the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm for normalizing low-level image features. The dynamic range of each component of the normalized vectors within [−1, 1] is wider than that of the 3sigma-FCM. The experiment also demonstrates that our method increases CBIR quality when combined with algorithms to define the similarity measure of images such as the EMR.
