A Survey on Current Content based Image Retrieval Methods

TLDR
The survey includes a large number of papers covering the research aspects of system design and applications of CBIR, image feature representation and extraction, Multidimensional indexing, and future research directions are suggested.
Abstract
Retrieving information from the Web is becoming a common practice for internet users. However, the size and heterogeneity of the Web challenge the effectiveness of classical information retrieval techniques. Content-based retrieval of images and video has become a hot research area. The reason for this is the fact that we need effective and efficient techniques that meet user requirements, to access large volumes of digital images and video data. This paper gives a brief survey of current CBIR (Content Based Image Retrieval) methods and technical achievement in this area. The survey includes a large number of papers covering the research aspects of system design and applications of CBIR, image feature representation and extraction, Multidimensional indexing. Furthermore future research directions are suggested.

Comparing images using the Hausdorff distance

TL;DR: Efficient algorithms for computing the Hausdorff distance between all possible relative positions of a binary image and a model are presented and it is shown that the method extends naturally to the problem of comparing a portion of a model against an image.
