Résumé

En indexation d’images, la plupart des descripteurs développés sont basés sur des statistiques globales des images. Aujourd’hui, des méthodes essayant d’aller plus loin dans la représentation apparaissent. Sans aller jusqu ’àune description sémantique, elles représentent les images plus finement en utilisant des statistiques localisées ainsi que les interactions entre celles-ci. Dans la plupart des cas, des structures de graphes sont utilisées. Cet article présente ces diverses approches ainsi que celle que nous avons développée en construisant un graphe pyramidal. Les premiers résultats obtenus pour des requêtes globales et partielles avec cette structure sont aussi présentés.

Abstract

Most indexing systems are based on global image descriptors. Nowadays, new representations are used. They try to describe images more precisely without exploiting any semantic description. They use local statistics and their relationships in the image. In this paper, we present these approaches and introduce a new representation system based on a pyramidal graph. First results are also presented which show that the proposed structure is very promising for both partial and global requests.
