Abstract

Handling queries over images is an interesting issue emerging recently in information systems. One of the most challenging problems on that work is how to process the image rotation efficiently since the query image and the ones stored in the database were typically not taken from the same angles. In this paper, an approach that employs time series representation of images is introduced. Subsequently, Fourier Transform technique can be performed to achieve the invariant rotation between images. Moreover, the data can be compressed efficiently on that representation when working on huge amount of data.

The major contribution on this work is the proposal of VPC  + -tree, extended from VPC-tree, a well-known structure supporting indexing and retrieving compressed objects. The VPC  + -tree not only supports faster and more accurate retrieval, but it also achieves the almost ideal ratio of disc access. It is a remarkable contribution in the field of time series data processing.
