Abstract

This paper proposes a methodology for effectiveness evaluation in content-based image retrieval systems. The methodology is based on the opinion of real users. This paper also presents the results of using this methodology to evaluate color descriptors for Web image retrieval. The experiments were performed using a database containing more than 230 thousand heterogeneous images that represents the existing content on the Web.
