Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare and evaluate retrieval effectiveness of three types of image perception using different retrieval methods. Image types included specific, general, and abstract topics. The retrieval method included text only search, query by example (QBE) search, and a hybrid/hybrid search. Thirty-two college students were recruited for searching topics using Google image search system. The search results were compared with One-Way and Two-Way ANOVA. As a result, text search and hybrid search showed advantage when searching for specific and general topics. On the other hand, the QBE search performed better than both the text-only and hybrid search for abstract topics. The results have implications for the implementation of image retrieval systems.

본 연구에서는 이미지 인지유형 및 질의방식에 따른 검색방법의 효율성을 분석하기 위해 32명의 대학생들이 구글 이미지 검색시스템을 이용하여 검색실험을 실시하였다. 이미지 인지유형은 구체적(specific), 일반적(generic), 추상적(abstract) 유형으로 구분하였으며, 각 유형별 이미지를 텍스트검색, 예제에 따른 검색(QBE: Query by example), 하이브리드검색 등 3가지 질의방식으로 구분하여 실험을 실시하였다. 독립변수는 이미지 인지유형 및 질의방식이며 종속변수는 검색된 적합한 이미지의 수이다. 데이터 분석은 일원배치 분산분석(One-way ANOVA)과 이원배치분석(Two way ANOVA)을 이용하여 검증하였다. 분석결과로는 구체적 이미지와 일반적 이미지 인지유형에서는 텍스트 및 하이브리드 방식이 검색효율성이 높게 나타났고 추상적 이미지 인지유형에서는 QBE이 검색효율성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 이미지 검색에서 검색효율성을 높이기 위한 방안을 마련하는데 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
