Rapid increase of the amount of music data demands for a new method that allows efficient similarity retrieval of music genre using audio features in music databases. To build this similarity retrieval, an indexing techniques that support audio features as a time-series pattern and data mining technologies are needed. In this paper, we address the development of a system that retrieves similar genre music based on the indexing techniques. We first propose the structure of content-based music genre retrieval system based on the time-series pattern index file and data mining technologies. In addition, we implement the time-series pattern index file using audio features and present performance analysis of the time-series pattern index file for similar genre retrieval. The experiments are performed on real data to verify the performance of the proposed method.

Fuzzy techniques can be applied in many domains of computer vision community. The definition of an adequate similarity measure for measuring the similarity between fuzzy sets is of great importance in the field of image processing, image retrieval and pattern recognition. This paper proposes a new class of the similarity measures. The properties, sensitivity and effectiveness of the proposed measures are investigated and tested on real data. Experimental results show that these similarity measures can provide a useful way for measuring the similarity between fuzzy sets.

in this paper, we imlemented design pattern retrieval system for efficient managemant and reusability of design patterns. Pattern is conssisted of property information and meta information id used for similarity measurement on classification and retrieval of patterns.Meta information od used for UML modeling of patterns. We classified design patterns with the empirical scope in addition to Gamma's basic classification. also we used E-SARM for retrieval represented UML diagram with pattern meta information, and simulated the environment so as to obtain best result on applying to retrieval of design pattern. This system is able ro resister new patterns through pattern viewer and manages these patterns with property informaiton and meta information. Thus this system supports efficient management of patterns, UML modeling, priority pattern retrieval, higher reusability and reduces pattern selection cost.

Shape description is an important and fundamental issue in content-based image retrieval (CBIR), and a number of shape description methods have been reported in the literature. For shape description, both global information and local contour variations play important roles. In this paper a new included-angular ternary pattern (IATP) based shape descriptor is proposed for shape image retrieval. For each point on the shape contour, IATP is derived from its neighbor points, and IATP has good properties for shape description. IATP is intrinsically invariant to rotation, translation and scaling. To enhance the description capability, multiscale IATP histogram is presented to describe both local and global information of shape. Then multiscale IATP histogram is combined with included-angular histogram for efficient shape retrieval. In the matching stage, cosine distance is used to measure shape features' similarity. Image retrieval experiments are conducted on the standard MPEG-7 shape database and Swedish leaf database. And the shape image retrieval performance of the proposed method is compared with other shape descriptors using the standard evaluation method. The experimental results of shape retrieval indicate that the proposed method reaches higher precision at the same recall value compared with other description method.

A video stream can be represented by a sequence of data points in a multidimensional space. In this paper, we introduce a trend vector that approximates values of data points in a sequence and represents the moving trend of points in the sequence, and present a pattern similarity matching method for data sequences using the trend vector. A sequence is partitioned into multiple segments, each of which is represented by a trend vector. The query processing is based on the comparison of these vectors instead of scanning data elements of entire sequences. Using the trend vector, our method is designed to filter out irrelevant sequences from a database and to find similar sequences with respect to a query. We have performed an extensive experiment on synthetic sequences as well as video streams. Experimental results show that the precision of our method is up to 2.1 times higher and the processing time is up to 45% reduced, compared with an existing method.

In this paper, we implemented design pattern retrieval system for efficient management and reusability of design patterns. Pattern is consisted of property information and meta information. Property information is used for similarity measurement on classification and retrieval of patterns. Meta information is used for UML modeling of patterns. We classified design patterns with the empirical scope in addition to Gamma's basic classification.

In this paper, we introduce two retrieval methods for photos with speech documents. We compare the pattern of speech query with those of speech documents recorded in digital cameras, and measure the similarities, and retrieve photos corresponding to the speech documents which have high similarity scores. As the first approach, a phoneme recognition scheme is used as the pre-processor for the pattern matching, and in the second one, the vector quantization (VQ) and the dynamic time warping (DTW) are applied to match the speech query with the documents in signal domain itself. Experimental results show that the performance of the first approach is highly dependent on that of phoneme recognition while the processing time is short. The second method provides a great improvement of performance. While the processing time is longer than that of the first method due to DTW, but we can reduce it by taking approximated methods.

Semantic interpretation of image is incomplete without some mechanism for understanding semantic content that is not directly visible. For this reason, human assisted content-annotation through natural language is an attachment of textual description to image. However, keyword-based retrieval is in the level of syntactic pattern matching. In other words, dissimilarity computation among terms is usually done by using string matching not concept matching. In this paper, we propose a method for computerized semantic similarity calculation In WordNet space. We consider the edge, depth, link type and density as well as existence of common ancestors. Also, we have introduced method that applied similarity measurement on semantic image retrieval. To combine wi#h the low level features, we use the spatial color distribution model. When tested on a image set of Microsoft's 'Design Gallery Line', proposed method outperforms other approach.

One-dimensional time-series data have been studied in various database applications such as data mining and data warehousing. However, in the current complex business environment, multidimensional data sequences (MDS') become increasingly important in addition to one-dimensional time-series data. For example, a video stream can be modeled as an MDS in the multidimensional space with respect to color and texture attributes. In this paper, we propose the effective similarity measures on which the similar pattern retrieval is based. An MDS is partitioned into segments, each of which is represented by various geometric and semantic features. The similarity measures are defined on the basis of these segments. Using the measures, irrelevant segments are pruned from a database with respect to a given query. Both data sequences and query sequences are partitioned into segments, and the query processing is based upon the comparison of the features between data and query segments, instead of scanning all data elements of entire sequences.

In this paper, we propose a novel JPEG-2000 compressed image retrieval system using feature vector extracted through partial entropy decoding. Main idea of the proposed method is to utilize the context information that is generated during entropy encoding/decoding. In the framework of JPEG-2000, the context of a current coefficient is determined depending on the pattern of the significance and/or the sign of its neighbors in three bit-plane coding passes and four coding modes. The contexts provide a model for estimating the probability of each symbol to be coded. And they can efficiently describe texture images which have different pattern because they represent the local property of images. In addition, our system can directly search the images in the JPEG-2000 compressed domain without full decompression. Therefore, our proposed scheme can accelerate the work of retrieving images. We create various distortion and similarity image databases using MIT VisTex texture images for simulation. we evaluate the proposed algorithm comparing with the previous ones. Through simulations, we demonstrate that our method achieves good performance in terms of the retrieval accuracy as well as the computational complexity.
