We have witnessed great interest and a wealth of promise in content-based image retrieval
as an emerging technology. While the last decade laid foundation to such promise, it also …

The nearest neighbor problem is the follolving: Given a set of n points P=(PI,..., p,} in some
metric space X, preprocess P so as to efficiently answer queries which require finding bhe …

The nearest-or near-neighbor query problems arise in a large variety of database
applications, usually in the context of similarity searching. Of late, there has been increasing …

Now in its fifth edition, John C. Russ's monumental image processing reference is an even
more complete, modern, and hands-on tool than ever before. The Image Processing …

We explore the effect of dimensionality on the “nearest neighbor” problem. We show that
under a broad set of conditions (much broader than independent and identically distributed …

Image content based retrieval is emerging as an important research area with application to
digital libraries and multimedia databases. The focus of this paper is on the image …

We describe two new color indexing techniques. The first one is a more robust version of the
commonly used color histogram indexing. In the index we store the cumulative color …

Research on ways to extend and improve query methods for image databases is
widespread. We have developed the QBIC (Query by Image Content) system to explore …

We present here SIMPLIcity (semantics-sensitive integrated matching for picture libraries),
an image retrieval system, which uses semantics classification methods, a wavelet-based …
