Abstract

Content based assembly drawing retrieval is valued highly in many application areas, and it is a common thing to seek assembly drawings from a large collection where a specified device part is contained. Different from object detection techniques, a novel solution is presented in this paper to find the occurrences of target objects. Firstly, all device parts are extracted from assembly drawing images according to their specific characteristics. In later retrieval, these parts are compared with the query image to realize the search task. Furthermore, SVM based relevance feedback is adopted to incrementally improve the retrieval performance, and two strategies are proposed: (1) a novel active selection criterion, which takes into consideration both the informative and the representative measures to obtain more information from the feedback images; (2) incorporation of unlabeled images to alleviate the small sample size problem. The performance of this method is verified by extensive experiments.
