Abstract

Accurate and automatic image orientation detection isof great importance in image libraries. In this paper, wepresent automatic image orientation detect on algorithmsby adopting both the illuminance (structural) andchrominance (color) low-level content features. Thestatistical learning Support Vector Machines (SVMs) areused n our approach as the classifiers. The differentsources of the extracted mage features, as well as thebinary classification nature of SVM, require our system tobe able to integrate the outputs from multiple classifiers.Both static combiner (averaging) and trainable combiner(also based on SVMs) are proposed and evaluated n thiswork. In addition, two rejection options (regular and re-enforced ambiguity rejections)are employed to improveorientation detect on accuracy by sieving out mages withlow confidence values during the classification. A numberof experiments on a database of more than 14,000 mageswere performed to validate our approaches.
