Title: Image Retrieval using Color-Texture Features from DCT on VQ Codevectors obtained by Kekre’s Fast Codebook Generation
Authors: Dr.H.B.Kekre and Tanuja K.Sarode and Sudeep D. Thepade
Abstract: The novel technique for image retrieval using the color-texture features extracted from images based on vector quantization with Kekre’s fast codebook generation is proposed. This gives better discrimination capability for CBIR. Here the database image is divided into 2x2 pixel windows to obtain 12 color descriptors per window (Red, Green and Blue per pixel) to form a vector. Collection of all such vectors is a training set. Then the Kekre’s Fast Codebook Generation (KFCG) is applied on this set to get 16 codevectors. The DCT is applied on these codevectors by converting them to column vector. This transform vector is used as the image signature (feature vector) for image retrieval. The method takes lesser computations as compared to conventional DCT applied on complete image. The method gives the color-texture features of the image database at reduced feature set size. Proposed method avoids resizing of images which is required for any transform based feature extraction method.
