Abstract

Search effectiveness in an image database is always a trade-off between the indexing cost and semantic richness. A solution that provides a significant degree of semantic richness that simultaneously limits the indexing cost is presented. The query schemes are able to enhance the query speed by adopting a semantically rich structured form for high-level image content information, as well as exploiting the efficiency of conventional database search. Through the use of rules, which can be either pre-defined or dynamically incorporated, a new level of semantic richness can be established, which will eliminate the costly detailed indexing of individual concepts. The query algorithm incorporates rule-based conceptual navigation, customized weighting, incremental indexing and relevance feedback mechanisms to enhance retrieval effectiveness.
