Image Retrieval Using Personalized and Non- Personalized Search

Dr.A.Muthu Kumaravel

Image search is a specialized data search used to find images. To search for images, a user may provide query terms such as keyword, image file/link, or click on some image, and the system will return images "similar" to the query. The similarity used for search criteria could be meta tags, colour distribution in images, region/shape attributes, etc. Image meta search - search of images based on associated metadata such as keywords, text, etc.Contentbased image retrieval (CBIR) – the application of computer vision to the image retrieval. CBIR aims at avoiding the use of textual descriptions and instead retrieves images based on similarities in their contents (textures, colors, shapes etc.) to a user-supplied query image or user-specified image features.
