Abstract

Images are difficult to classify and annotate but the availability of digital image databases creates a constant demand for tools that automatically analyze image content and describe it with either a category or set of words. We develop two cluster-based cross-media relevance models that effectively categorize and annotate images by adapting a cross-lingual retrieval technique to choose the terms most likely associated with the visual features of an image.
