Abstract

This paper proposes a new approach for content based image retrieval based on feed-forward architecture and Tetrolet transforms. The proposed method addresses the problems of accuracy and retrieval time of the retrieval system. The proposed retrieval system works in two phases: feature extraction and retrieval. The feature extraction phase extracts the texture, edge and color features in a sequence. The texture features are extracted using Tetrolet transform. This transform provides better texture analysis by considering the local geometry of the image. Edge orientation histogram is used for retrieving the edge feature while color histogram is used for extracting the color features. Further retrieval phase retrieves the images in the feed-forward manner. At each stage, the number of images for next stage is reduced by filtering out irrelevant images. The Euclidean distance is used to measure the distance between the query and database images at each stage. The experimental results on COREL- 1 K and CIFAR - 10 benchmark databases show that the proposed system performs better in terms of the accuracy and retrieval time in comparison to the state-of-the-art methods.
