Abstract :

With the increasing popularity of the use of large volume image database in various applications, it becomes essential to build an automatic and efficient retrieval system to owse the entire database. Techniques using textual attributes for annotations are limited in applications. The present approach relies on image feature that exploit visual cues such as shape. This paper describes contour based shape context descriptor for gray scale image retrieval. The proposed shape context descriptor will improve efficiency by using shape parameter and shape representation method. Shape context descriptor has properties like translation, rotation and scale invariant.  The paper shows the good retrieval accuracy by applying shape context descriptor in gray scale dataset.
