In retrieving large database of image data, the clustering is essential for fast retrieval. However, it is difficult to cluster a number of image data adequately. Moreover, current retrieval methods using similarities are uncertain of retrieval accuracy and take much retrieving time. In this paper, a suggested image retrieval system combines Fuzzy ART neural network algorithm to reinforce defects and to support them efficiently. This image retrieval system takes color and texture as specific feature required in retrieval system and normalizes each of them. We adapt Fuzzy ART algorithm as neural network which receive normalized input-vector and propose improved Fuzzy ART algorithm. The result of implementation with 200 image data shows approximately retrieval ratio of 83%.

Recent years, as a rapid development of multimedia technology, video database system to retrieve video data efficiently seems to core technology in the oriented society. This thesis describes an efficient automatic frame detection and location method for content based retrieval of video. Frame extraction part is consist of incoming / outgoing car frame extraction and car number frame extraction stage. We gain star/end time of car video also car number frames. Frames are selected at fixed time interval from video and key frames are selected by color scale histogram and edge operation method. Car frame recognized can be searched by content based retrieval method.

For content-based image retrieval, the earth mover's distance and the optimal color composition distance are proposed to measure the dissimilarity. Although providing good retrieval results, both methods are too time-consuming to be used in a large image database. To solve the problem, we propose a new distance function that calculates an approximate earth mover's distance in linear time. To calculate the dissimilarity in linear time, the proposed approach employs the space-filling curve. We have performed extensive experiments to show the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach. The results reveal that our approach achieves almost the same results with the EMD in linear time.

Feature-based similarity retrieval become an important research issue in image database systems. The features of image data are useful to discrimination of images. In this paper, we propose the highspeed k-Nearest Neighbor search algorithm based on Self-Organizing Maps. Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) provides a mapping from high dimensional feature vectors onto a two-dimensional space. The mapping preserves the topology of the feature vectors. The map is called topological feature map. A topological feature map preserves the mutual relations (similarity) in feature spaces of input data. and clusters mutually similar feature vectors in a neighboring nodes. Each node of the topological feature map holds a node vector and similar images that is closest to each node vector. In topological feature map, there are empty nodes in which no image is classified. We experiment on the performance of our algorithm using color feature vectors extracted from images. Promising results have been obtained in experiments.

With the increasing popularity of the use of large-volume image database in various application, it becomes imperative to build an efficient and fast retrieval system to browse through the entire database. We present a new method for a content-based image retrieval by using a variable block size and block matching algorithm. Proposed approach is reflecting image features that exploit visual cues such as color and space allocation of image and is getting the fast retrieval time by automatical convergence of retrieval times which adapt to wanting similarity value. We have implemented this technique and tested it for a database of approximately 150 images. The test shows that a 1.9 times fast retrieval time compare to J & V algorithm at the image retrieval efficiency 0.65 and that a 1.83 times fast retrieval time compare to predefined fixed block size.

Due to the explosive growth of multimedia speech data, how to protect the privacy of speech data and how to efficiently retrieve speech data have become a hot spot for researchers in recent years. In this paper, we proposed an encrypted speech retrieval scheme based on long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network and deep hashing. This scheme not only achieves efficient retrieval of massive speech in cloud environment, but also effectively avoids the risk of sensitive information leakage. Firstly, a novel speech encryption algorithm based on 4D quadratic autonomous hyperchaotic system is proposed to realize the privacy and security of speech data in the cloud. Secondly, the integrated LSTM network model and deep hashing algorithm are used to extract high-level features of speech data. It is used to solve the high dimensional and temporality problems of speech data, and increase the retrieval efficiency and retrieval accuracy of the proposed scheme. Finally, the normalized Hamming distance algorithm is used to achieve matching. Compared with the existing algorithms, the proposed scheme has good discrimination and robustness and it has high recall, precision and retrieval efficiency under various content preserving operations. Meanwhile, the proposed speech encryption algorithm has high key space and can effectively resist exhaustive attacks.

Query-by-example (QBE) is a well-known method for image retrieval. In reality, however, an example image to be used for the query is rarely available. Therefore, it is often necessary to find a good example image to be used for the query before applying the QBE method. Query-by-layout (QBL) is our proposal for that purpose. In particular, we make use of the visual descriptors such as the edge histogram descriptor (EHD) and the color layout descriptor (CLD) in MPEG-7. Since image features of the CLD and the EHD can be localized in terms of a$4{\times}4$ sub-image, we can specify image features such as color and edge distribution on each sub-image separately for image retrieval without a query image. Experimental results show that the proposed query method can be used to retrieve a good image as a starting point for further QBE-based image retrieval.

In this paper, we first propose new texture features, BVLC (block variation of local correlation coefficients) moments, for content-based image retrieval (CBIR) and then present an image retrieval method based on the fusion of BDIP and BVLC moments. BDIP uses the local probabilities in image blocks to extract valley and edges well. BVLC uses the variations of local correlation coefficients in images blocks to measure texture smoothness well. In order not to be affected with the movement, rotation, and size of an object, the first and second moments of BDIP and BVLC are used for CBIR. Corel DB and Vistex DB are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed retrieval method. Experimental results show that the presented retrieval method yields average 12% better performance than the method using only BDIP or BVLC moments and average 13% better performance than the method using wavelet moments.

In this paper, we present a overview of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems: its results and its problems. We propose our CBIR system currently based on color and texture. From the CBIR systems. we discuss the way to add semantic values in image retrieval systems. There are 3 ways for adding them: concept definition, machine learning and man-machine interaction. Along with this we introduce our preliminary results and discuss them in the goal of reaching semantic retrieval. Different result representation schemes are presented. At last, we present our work to build a complete annotated image database and our image annotaion program.
