CBIR is an effective tool to search and extract image contents in a large remote sensing image database queried by an operator or end user. However, as imaging principles are different by sensors, their visual representation thus varies among image modality type. Considering images of various modalities archived in the database, image modality difference has to be tackled for the successful CBIR implementation. However, this topic has been seldom dealt with and thus still poses a practical challenge. This study suggests a cross modality CBIR (termed as the CM-CBIR) method that transforms given query feature vector by a supervised procedure in order to link between modalities. This procedure leverages the skill of analyst in training steps after which the transformed query vector is created for the use of searching in target images with different modalities. Current initial results show the potential of the proposed CM-CBIR method by delivering the image content of interest from different modality images. Despite its retrieval capability is outperformed by that of same modality CBIR (abbreviated as the SM-CBIR), the lack of retrieval performance can be compensated by employing the user's relevancy feedback, a conventional technique for retrieval enhancement.

Recent content-based image retrieval systems make use of a local single server contained a limited number of images. So these systems are not satisfactory for the Web user's needs that make request for various images on the Web. A content-based image retrieval system that has regard for a great number of Web images has to stand on the basis of real-time first of all. Therefore, to implement the above system we have to resolve a problem of large waste time to take for an image collection and feature extractions. In recent, PC clusters with a load distribution are implemented for the purpose of high-performance data processing. In this paper, we decreased the whole retrieval time by distributing the tasks of image collection and feature extraction to take much time among the slave computers of the PC cluster, and so we found the possibility of the real-time processing in the retrieval of Web images.

In recent years, main focus of research on image retrieval techniques is on content-based image retrieval. Text-based image retrieval schemes, on the other hand, provide semantic support and efficient retrieval of matching images. In this paper, based on Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), we propose a new image indexing and retrieval technique. The proposed scheme uses keywords and textual annotations and provides semantic support with fast retrieval of images. Retrieval efficiency in this scheme is independent of the number of images in the database and depends only on the number of attributes. This scheme provides dynamic support for addition of new images in the database and can be adopted to find images with any number of matching attributes.

In this paper we present a novel approach for image retrieval using color and edge information. We take into account the HSI(Hue, Saturation and Intensity) color space instead of RGB space, which emphasizes more on visual perception. In our system colors in an image are clustered into a small number of representative colors. The color feature descriptor consists of the representative colors and their percentages in the image. An improved cumulative color histogram distance measure is defined for this descriptor. And also, we have developed an efficient edge detection technique as an optional feature to our retrieval system in order to surmount the weakness of color feature. During the query processing, both the features (color, edge information) could be integrated for image retrieval as well as a standalone entity, by specifying it in a certain proportion. The content-based retrieval system is tested to be effective in terms of retrieval and scalability through experimental results and precision-recall analysis.

Spatial match retrieval methods for iconic image databases recognize an image document as several icon symbols. Therefore the iconic symbols are used as primary keys to index the image document. When a user requires content-based retrieval ofimages, a spatial match retrieval method converts a query image into iconic symbols and then retrieves relevant images by accessing stored images. In order to support content-based image retrieval efficiently, we, in this paper, propose spatial match retrieval methods using signatures for iconic image databases. For this, we design new index representations of two-dimensional iconic images and explain implemented system.. In addition, we compare the conventional 9-DLT and our two-dimensional image retrieval method in terms of retrieval precision and recall ratio. We show that our method is more efficient than the conventional method.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method to maximize a content-based image retrieval efficiency in multiple images. To perform an image retrieval job efficiently, it is necessary to minimize the number of candidate-images. Furthermore, a miximum efficiency of image retrieval could not be expected if an image retrieval job in the multiple images is done on the basis of patterns of single image distinctive features. In this method, a multiple SOFM neural network system is adopted to select automatically distinctive feature patterns which have a maximum efficiency of image retrieval in the multiple images. In this method. an image retrieval efficiency is improved 3% than individual features and the number of candidate-images is reduced by the multiple SOFM neural network system.

An important aspect of video program indexing and retrieval is the ability to segment video program into meaningful segments, in other words, the ability of content-based video program segmentation. In this paper, a new approach using speech recognition technology has been proposed for content-based video program segmentation. This approach uses speech recognition technique to synchronize closed caption with speech signal. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is very promising for content-based video program segmentation.

Delay in the process of Information Extraction, IE, is largely due to inability to correctly recognize the user's information requirement of particular search factors. Especially if the wrapper rules are used in a search engine, the search generally fails to classify internet documents properly and efficiently since the application of the same wrapper rules lacks extensibility throughout various types of existing internet document. In case of buying or selling a ship, if the price range, type. place of delivery, inspection site and other information relevant to the sales would be available through the internet for proper retrieval the sales could more readily succeed by using Ontology relating to sales or purchase information and by selectively searching for the desired information through the content based retrieval system. This system proposes to improve various wrapper systems existing throughout different internet sites and to eliminate unnecessary information tagged on the existing internet documents in order to create a more advanced information retrieval system.
