Powerful Descriptor for Image Retrieval Based on Angle Edge and Histograms

Abstract

By gaining the place of active and important research area, Content based image retrieval has been proposed ina number of different ways after its inception. In the proposed method, a new angle orientation histogram hasbeen introduced named as Angle Edge Histogram. By applying Pythagorean theory to image, very usefulcharacteristics have been obtained for image matching, search and retrieval. Proposed method has also beencompared with existing methods and the results show that it outperforms the existing methods in values ofprecision and recall and balance of precision and recall. Proposed method receives an average of 94% ofprecision and 79% of recall rates.
