This paper presents a new indexing technique, for the fast content-based image browsing and retrieval in a database. By applying the rosette pattern that has more sample lines in the vicinity of center than those m the outer parts, we can get global gray distribution features as well as local positional information. These features are transformed into histogram and used as database indices. From the simulation results, the proposed method clearly shows the validity and the efficiency in respect of memory space as well as a good retrieval performance.

In recent years automatic image indexing and retrieval have been increasingly studied. However, content-based retrieval techniques for general images are still inadequate for many purposes. The novelty and originality of this thesis are the definition and use of a spatial information model as a contribution to the accuracy and efficiency of image search. In addition, the model is applied to represent color and shape image contents as a vector using the method of image features extraction, which was inspired by the previous work on the study of human visual perception. The indexing scheme using the color, shape and spatial model shows the potential of being applied with the well-developed algorithms of features extraction and image search, like ranking operations. To conclude, user can retrieved more similar images with high precision and fast speed using the proposed system.

So far, many researches have been done to index high-dimensional feature values for fast content-based image retrieval. Still, many existing indexing schemes are suffering from performance degradation due to the curse of dimensionality problem. As an alternative, heuristic algorithms have been proposed to calculate the result with 'high probability' at the cost of accuracy. In this paper, we propose a new extendible hash-based indexing scheme for high-dimensional feature values. Our indexing scheme provides several advantages compared to the traditional high-dimensional index structures in terms of search performance and accuracy preservation. Through extensive experiments, we show that our proposed indexing scheme achieves outstanding performance.

The cover song refers to live recordings or reproduced albums. This paper studies two-dimensional Fourier transform as a feature-dimension reduction method to search cover song fast. The two-dimensional Fourier transform is conducive in feature-dimension reduction for cover song search due to musical-key invariance. This paper extends the previous work, which only utilize the magnitude of the Fourier transform, by introducing an invariant from phase based on the assumption that adjacent frames have the same musical-key change. We compare the cover song retrieval accuracy of the Fourier-transform based methods over two datasets. The experimental results show that the addition of the invariant from phase improves the cover song retrieval accuracy over the previous magnitude-only method.

In order to retrieve the rotated image within database by the content based image retrieval system, the algorithms with rotation robustness is usually applied in the procedure of the feature extraction. In that case, it requires much calculation time for feature extraction and much indexed data for feature indexing. Thus. in this paper. we propose the rotation robust algorithm using the block variance of the projected vector. The algorithm does not require additional calculation for feature extraction and is executed within query time by comparing the extracted data. Proposed method can be processed through database including various size of images with shape information and executed with fast response time in implementation.

Three dimensional (3-D) object detection and pose estimation from a single view query image has been an important issue in various fields such as medical applications, robot vision, and manufacturing automation. However, most of the existing methods are not appropriate in a real time environment since object detection and pose estimation requires extensive information and computation. In this paper, we present a fast 3-D object detection and pose estimation scheme based on surrounding camera view-changed images of objects. Our scheme has two parts. First, we detect images similar to the query image from the database based on the shape feature, and calculate candidate poses. Second, we perform accurate pose estimation for the candidate poses using the scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) method. We earned out extensive experiments on our prototype system and achieved excellent performance, and we report some of the results.

Indexing techniques for distributed resources have much effect on an information service system based on distributed environment like digital library. There is a centralized indexing technique, a distributed technique, and a mixed technique for distributed indexing techniques. In this paper, we propose new distributed indexing technique using EIF(extended Inverted File) structure that mix the centralized technique and t도 distributed technique. And we propose management techniques using EIF structure and retrieval technique using EIF structure. This distributed indexing technique proposed is able to fast process retrieval request and reduce network overload and select servers relevant to query terms. This paper investigated performance of a proposed distributed indexing technique.

Generally, a user uses briefly summarized video data and text information to search video contents. To provide fast and accurate search tool for video contents in the process of searching video contents, this study proposes a method to search video clips which was partitioned from video contents. To manage and control video contents and metadata, the proposed method creates structural information based on XML on a video and metadata, and saves the information into XML database. With the saved information, when a user try to search video contents, the results of user's query to retrieve video contents would be provided through creating Xpath which has class structure information. Based on the proposed method, an information retrieval system for video clips was designed and implemented.

As the importance or XML is increasing to manage information and exchange data efficiently in the web, there are on going works about structural integration and retrieval. The XML. document with the defined structure can retrieve the structure through the DTD or XML schema, but the existing method can't apply to XML. documents which haven't the structure information. Therefore. in this paper we propose a new clus-tering technique at a basic research which make it possible to retrieve structure fast about the XML documents that haven't the structure information. We first estract the feature of frequent structure from each XML document. And we cluster based on the similar structure by con-sidering the frequent structure as representative structure of the XML document, which makes it possible to retrieve the XML document raster than dealing with the whole documents that have different structure. And also we perform the structure retrieval about XML documents based on the clusters which is the group of similar structure. Moreover, we show efficiency of proposed method to describe how to apply the structure retrieval as well as to display the example of application result.
