Abstract
A new image retrieval technique using local neighborhood difference pattern (LNDP) has been proposed for local features. The conventional local binary pattern (LBP) transforms every pixel of image into a binary pattern based on their relationship with neighboring pixels. The proposed feature descriptor differs from local binary pattern as it transforms the mutual relationship of all neighboring pixels in a binary pattern. Both LBP and LNDP are complementary to each other as they extract different information using local pixel intensity. In the proposed work, both LBP and LNDP features are combined to extract the most of the information that can be captured using local intensity differences. To prove the excellence of the proposed method, experiments have been conducted on four different databases of texture images and natural images. The performance has been observed using well-known evaluation measures, precision and recall and compared with some state-of-art local patterns. Comparison shows a significant improvement in the proposed method over existing methods.
