Features in Content-based Image Retrieval Systems: a Survey.

TLDR
This article provides a framework to describe and compare content-based image retrieval systems, in terms of the following technical aspects: querying, relevance feedback, result presentation, features, and matching.
Abstract
This article provides a framework to describe and compare content-based image retrieval systems. Sixteen contemporary systems are described in detail, in terms of the following technical aspects: querying, relevance feedback, result presentation, features, and matching. For a total of 44 systems we list the features that are used. Of these systems, 35 use any kind of color features, 28 use texture, and only 25 use shape features.

Semantic Modeling of Natural Scenes for Content-Based Image Retrieval

TL;DR: A novel image representation is presented that renders it possible to access natural scenes by local semantic description by using a perceptually plausible distance measure that leads to a high correlation between the human and the automatically obtained typicality ranking.

Region-based image retrieval using integrated color, shape, and location index

TL;DR: Results obtained show that retrieval effectiveness increases in non-cascaded region-based querying by combined index, and also based on a combined color shape location index.

Polygonal Modeling of Contours of Breast Tumors With the Preservation of Spicules

TL;DR: An index of spiculation derived from the turning functions of the polygonal models obtained by the proposed method yields better classification accuracy than a similar measure derived using a previously published method.
