Abstract

Content-based indexing and retrieval (CBIR) of still and motion picture databases is an area of ever increasing attention. In this paper we present a method for still image information extraction, which in itself provides a somewhat higher level of features and also can serve as a basis for high level, i.e. semantic, image feature extraction and understanding. In our proposed method we use blind deconvolution for image area classification by interest regions, which is a novel use of the technique. We prove its viability for such and similar use.
