Abstract

En 中文

The complementary fusion of global and local features can effectively improve the performance of image retrieval. This article proposes a new local texture descriptor, combined with statistical modeling in transform domain for texture image retrieval. The proposed local descriptor calculates the eight directions of the central pixel by using the relationship between the central pixel and the neighboring pixels in six directions, which is called the local eight direction pattern (LEDP). In the texture image retrieval system of this article, the feature extraction part combines global statistical features and local pattern features. Among them, both the relative magnitude (RM) sub-band coefficients and relative phase (RP) sub-band coefficients are modeled as wrapped Cauchy (WC) distribution in the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT) domain, and the global statistical features employ the parameters of this model; while the local pattern features respectively choose the local binary pattern (LBP) histogram features in the spatial domain and the LEDP histogram features of each direction sub-band in the DTCWT domain. On the other hand, the similarity measurement selects matching distances for different features and combines them in the form of convex linear optimization. Texture image retrieval experiments are conducted in the Corel-1k database (DB1), Brodatz texture database (DB2) and MIT VisTex texture database (DB3), respectively. Experimental results show that, compared with the best existing methods, the approach proposed in this article has achieved better retrieval performance.
