Video 62: Color Edge Features and DWT based Image Retrieval (With MATLAB Code)

 



Hello viewers, in this video, Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is implemented. This CBIR utilizes both the color and edge features of the images. For this purpose, Color Edge Histograms are obtained. To reduce the size of feature vector, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is also used. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm for effective CBIR.
