Abstract EN
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) provides a sustainable solution to retrieve similar images from an image archive.
In the last few years, the Bag-of-Visual-Words (BoVW) model gained attention and significantly improved the performance of image retrieval.
In the standard BoVW model, an image is represented as an orderless global histogram of visual words by ignoring the spatial layout.
The spatial layout of an image carries significant information that can enhance the performance of CBIR.
In this paper, we are presenting a novel image representation that is based on a combination of local and global histograms of visual words.
The global histogram of visual words is constructed over the whole image, while the local histogram of visual words is constructed over the local rectangular region of the image.
The local histogram contains the spatial information about the salient objects.
Extensive experiments and comparisons conducted on Corel-A, Caltech-256, and Ground Truth image datasets demonstrate that the proposed image representation increases the performance of image retrieval.
