TLDR
Comparisons with other multiresolution texture features using the Brodatz texture database indicate that the Gabor features provide the best pattern retrieval accuracy.Abstract:
Image content based retrieval is emerging as an important research area with application to digital libraries and multimedia databases. The focus of this paper is on the image processing aspects and in particular using texture information for browsing and retrieval of large image data. We propose the use of Gabor wavelet features for texture analysis and provide a comprehensive experimental evaluation. Comparisons with other multiresolution texture features using the Brodatz texture database indicate that the Gabor features provide the best pattern retrieval accuracy. An application to browsing large air photos is illustrated.read more

The Earth Mover's Distance as a Metric for Image Retrieval
TL;DR: This paper investigates the properties of a metric between two distributions, the Earth Mover's Distance (EMD), for content-based image retrieval, and compares the retrieval performance of the EMD with that of other distances.

Similarity Search in High Dimensions via Hashing
TL;DR: Experimental results indicate that the novel scheme for approximate similarity search based on hashing scales well even for a relatively large number of dimensions, and provides experimental evidence that the method gives improvement in running time over other methods for searching in highdimensional spaces based on hierarchical tree decomposition.

Image retrieval: Ideas, influences, and trends of the new age
TL;DR: Almost 300 key theoretical and empirical contributions in the current decade related to image retrieval and automatic image annotation are surveyed, and the spawning of related subfields are discussed, to discuss the adaptation of existing image retrieval techniques to build systems that can be useful in the real world.

The wavelet transform, time-frequency localization and signal analysis
TL;DR: Two different procedures for effecting a frequency analysis of a time-dependent signal locally in time are studied and the notion of time-frequency localization is made precise, within this framework, by two localization theorems.

High confidence visual recognition of persons by a test of statistical independence
TL;DR: A method for rapid visual recognition of personal identity is described, based on the failure of a statistical test of independence, which implies a theoretical "cross-over" error rate of one in 131000 when a decision criterion is adopted that would equalize the false accept and false reject error rates.

Complete discrete 2-D Gabor transforms by neural networks for image analysis and compression
TL;DR: A three-layered neural network based on interlaminar interactions involving two layers with fixed weights and one layer with adjustable weights finds coefficients for complete conjoint 2-D Gabor transforms without restrictive conditions for image analysis, segmentation, and compression.
