Abstract

We propose in this paper to integrate the semantic description of the image and the relational characterization of its components through an architecture which follows a sharp process for generating image index and query representations and computing their correspondence. This architecture relies on an expressive representation formalism handling high-level image descriptions and a conceptual query framework in an attempt to operate image indexing and retrieval operations beyond keyword-based and loosely-coupled state-of-the-art systems. At the experimental level, we evaluate its retrieval performance through recall and precision indicators on a test collection of 2500 color photographs.
