Abstract

The performance of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) is usually limited since only single visual feature and single similarity measurement are used. In order to solve this problem, the color and texture visual features of an image are analyzed firstly. And then 12 kinds of similarity measurement are used to evaluate similarity between the image being checked and the images in the retrieval library. The CBIR problem is therefore transferred to an optimization problem with the precision ratio as its objective function. Quantum-behaved Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) algorithm is used to solve the CBIR optimization problem in order to find the optimal weight and the optimal combination of visual features and similarity measurements. Experimental results show that the proposed method based on QPSO algorithm has better performance on the retrieval effect.
