New Image Retrieval Principle: Image Mining and Visual Ontology

  • Chapter
Multimedia Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery

Abstract

Image data are omnipresent for various applications. A considerable volume of data is produced, and we need to develop tools to efficiently retrieve relevant information. Image mining is a new and challenging research field that tries to overcome some limitations reached by content-based image retrieval. Image mining deals with making associations between images from large database and presenting a summarized view.
