A Bayesian architecture for annotating, categorizing and retrieving 3D models of homogenous images given their 2D view is presented. Although the superiority of bayesian retrieval in a generic database has been studied, its ability to discriminate visually similar images, similarity being in colour, texture or shape has not been much reported. In the current work, we have established that continuous probabilistic image modeling based on mixture of Gaussians together with KL similarity measure, shows remarkable performance. For training, the characteristic view of the images is used. The features extracted are the polynomials transform coefficients. The algorithms used are simple, computationally efficient and do not require any prior segmentation. The dependence of the performance of the proposed architecture on the number of transform subspaces and the number of Gaussian mixtures has been studied. A comparative study with Daubechies wavelet shows that this architecture performs well with a small number of dimensions of transform subspaces and also with a small number of mixture of Gaussians, in addition to being fast.
