In content based image retrieval (CBIR) system, the images are represented based upon its feature such as color, texture, shape, and spatial relationship etc. In this paper, we propose a MRI Image Retrieval using wavelet transform with mahalanobis distance measurement. Wavelet transformation can also be easily extended to 2-D (image) or 3-D (volume) data by successively applying 1-D transformation on different dimensions. The proposed algorithm has tested using wavelet transform and performance analysis have done with HH and $H^*$ elimination methods. The retrieval image is the relevance between a query image and any database image, the relevance similarity is ranked according to the closest similar measures computed by the mahalanobis distance measurement. An adaptive similarity synthesis approach based on a linear combination of individual feature level similarities are analyzed and presented in this paper. The feature weights are calculated by considering both the precision and recall rate of the top retrieved relevant images as predicted by our enhanced technique. Hence, to produce effective results the weights are dynamically updated for robust searching process. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is easily identifies target object and reduces the influence of background in the image and thus improves the performance of MRI image retrieval.

This paper presents the information retrieval system which can retrieve the most appropriate answer sentence for user queries by using the concept and the attribute for the knowledge retrieval. The system analyzes the user query into the Boolean queries with the concept and the attribute and then retrieve the relevant documents in the indexing set of answer documents. Users can retrieve the relevant answer sentences from the relevant documents. For this, the answer documents indexed by the concept and the attribute are segmented by each sentence respectively. Thus, the segmented sentences are analyzed into the concept and the attribute of which the relevance degree with indexing units of documents is evaluated. Then, the system indexes the location of answer sentences. In the experiment, we evaluate the performance of our answer retrieval system against 100 user queries and show the experimental results.

Variable contents are extracted and used to improve the correctness of the retrieval in the content-based in age retrieval. This way use the physical feature for the retrieval. In this way of retrieval, the user has to know the basic physical features and spatial relationship of target images that he wants to retrieve. There are some restriction to reflect the user's intend. We need the retrieval system that reflect the user's intend. In this paper, we propose an emotion-based retrieval system. It is different from past emotion based image retrieval in point of view that it uses relevance feedback to estimate the users intend and it is easily combined with past content-based image retrieval system. The features and similarity measures are adopted from MPEG-7 color descriptors which are proper retrieval of large multimedia databases. We use wallpaper images for the experiment. The result shows that the system get successful result.

Recently, studies of relevance feedback to increase the performance of image retrieval has been activated. In this Paper a new region weighting method in region based image retrieval with relevance feedback is proposed to reduce the semantic gap between the low level feature representation and the high level concept in a given query image. The new weighting method determines the importance of regions according to the spatial locations of regions in an image. Experimental results demonstrate that the retrieval quality of our method is about 18% in recall better than that of area percentage approach. and about 11% in recall better than that of region frequency weighted by inverse image frequency approach and the retrieval time of our method is a tenth of that of region frequency approach.

Pseudo relevance feedback (PRF) is a powerful query expansion (QE) technique that prepares queries using the top k pseudorelevant documents and choosing expansion elements. Traditional PRF frameworks have robustly handled vocabulary mismatch corresponding to user queries and pertinent documents; nevertheless, expansion elements are chosen, disregarding similarity to the original query's elements. Word embedding (WE) schemes comprise techniques of significant interest concerning QE, that falls within the information retrieval domain. Deep averaging networks (DANs) defines a framework relying on average word presence passed through multiple linear layers. The complete query is understandably represented using the average vector comprising the query terms. The vector may be employed for determining expansion elements pertinent to the entire query. In this study, we suggest a DANs-based technique that augments PRF frameworks by integrating WE similarities to facilitate Arabic information retrieval. The technique is based on the fundamental that the top pseudo-relevant document set is assessed to determine candidate element distribution and select expansion terms appropriately, considering their similarity to the average vector representing the initial query elements. The Word2Vec model is selected for executing the experiments on a standard Arabic TREC 2001/2002 set. The majority of the evaluations indicate that the PRF implementation in the present study offers a significant performance improvement compared to that of the baseline PRF frameworks.

This paper proposes an efficient algorithm to select the proper retrieval results from various information sources in Meta search. The algorithm collects and evaluates the related documents to the given query Then, it determines the appropriate retrieval results based on the relevance between the query and the collected documents. This algorithm depends on the Meta information such as the size N of population, top-ranked information of related documents and the precision in order to choose the most appropriate retrieval result.

This paper presents the application of best match search algorithm in the client/server system for natural language access to Web-based database. For this purpose, the procedures to process Korean word variants as well as to execute probabilistic weighting scheme have been implemented in the client/server system. The experimental runs have been done using a Korean test set which included documents, queries and relevance judgements. The experimental results demonstrate that best match retrieval with relevance information is better than the retrieval without it.

If there is an Information Retrieval system which comprehends the semantic content of documents and knows the preference of users. the system can search the information better on the Internet, or improve the IR performance. Therefore we propose the IR model which combines semantic based indexing and fuzzy relevance model. In addition to the statistical approach, we chose the semantic approach in indexing, lexical chains, because we assume it would improve the performance of the index term extraction. Furthermore, we combined the semantic based indexing with the fuzzy model, which finds out the exact relevance of the user preference and index terms. The proposed system works as follows: First, the presented system indexes documents by the efficient index term extraction method using lexical chains. And then, if a user tends to retrieve the information from the indexed document collection, the extended IR model calculates and ranks the relevance of user query. user preference and index terms by some metrics. When we experimented each module, semantic based indexing and extended fuzzy model. it gave noticeable results. The combination of these modules is expected to improve the information retrieval performance.

Boolean retrieval is simple and elegant. However, since there is no provision for term weighting, no ranking of the answer set is generated. As a result, the size of the output might be too large or too small. Relevance feedback is the most popular query reformulation strategy. in a relevance feedback cycle, the user is presented with a list of the retrieved documents and, after examining them, marks those which are relevant. In practice, only the top 10(or 20) ranked documents need to be examined. The main idea consists of selecting important terms, or expressions, attached to the documents that have been identified as relevant by the user, and of enhancing the importance of these terms in a new query formulation. The expected effect is that the new query will be moved towards the relevant documents and away from the non-relevant ones. Local analysis techniques are interesting because they take advantage of the local context provided with the query. In this regard, they seem more appropriate than global analysis techniques. In a local strategy, the documents retrieved for a given query q are examined at query time to determine terms for query expansion. This is similar to a relevance feedback cycle but might be done without assistance from the user.
