Abstract

Discovering various interest of users from massive image databases is a strenuous and rapid impel expedition region. Understanding the needs of users and representing them meaningfully is a challenging task. Region-based image retrieval (RBIR) is a method that incorporates the meaningful description of objects and an intuitive specification of spatial relationships. Our proposed model introduces a novel technique of semantic clustering in two stages. Initial semantic clusters are constructed in the first stage from the database log file by focusing on user interested query regions. These clusters are further refined by relevance feedback in the second stage based on probabilistic feature weight using positive and negative examples. Our results show that the proposed system enhances the performance of semantic clusters.
