Abstract

For the purpose of content-based image retrieval (CBIR), image classification is important to help improve the retrieval accuracy and speed of the retrieval process. However, the CBIR systems that employ image classification suffer from the problem of hidden classes. The queries associated with hidden classes cannot be accurately answered using a traditional CBIR system. To address this problem, a robust CBIR scheme is proposed that incorporates a novel query detection technique and a self-adaptive retrieval strategy. A number of experiments carried out on the two popular image datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
