Abstract

The search algorithms for the objects of interest related to shape similarity in a video or image library were implemented by various research groups. This work focuses on the search of a sample object (car) in video sequences and images related to the shape similarity. We also investigate a new description for cars, using relational graphs. The goal of this study is to investigate the shape matching method based on relational graph of objects with respect to its accuracy, efficiency and scalability. The aim is to annotate the images where the object of interest (OOI) is present. Then the query by text can be performed to extract images of OOI from a preprocessed database. The graph based description of the object with its meaningful parts provides an efficient way to obtain high level semantics from low level features. The hierarchical segmentation increases the accuracy of the detection of the object in the transformed and occluded images.
