Abstract

Images annotation is the main tool for associating a semantic to an image. In this article we are interested in the semi-automatic annotation of images data. Indeed, with the great mass of data managed throughout the world and especially with the Web, the manual annotation of these images is almost impossible. We propose an approach based on neighborhood graphs offering several possibilities: content-based retrieval, key-words based interrogation, and the annotation which concerns us in this article. The approach we are proposing offers, as the experiments section shows it, very interesting annotation results while satisfying the scalability criteria which is a very significant point in this context where the mass of data is very important.
