Research and Improvement of Content-Based Image Retrieval Framework

This paper proposed a high-performance image retrieval framework, which combines the improved feature extraction algorithm SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform), improved feature matching, improved feature coding Fisher and improved Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) for image retrieval. Aiming at the problem of slow convergence of traditional GMM algorithm, an improved GMM is proposed. This algorithm initializes the GMM by using on-line K-means clustering method, which improves the convergence speed of the algorithm. At the same time, when the model is updated, the storage space is saved through the improvement of the criteria for matching rules and generating new Gaussian distributions. Aiming at the problem that the dimension of SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm is too high, the matching speed is too slow and the matching rate is low, an improved SIFT algorithm is proposed, which preserves the advantages of SIFT algorithm in fuzzy, compression, rotation and scaling invariance advantages, and improves the matching speed, the correct match rate is increased by an average of 40% to 55%. Experiments on a recently released VOC 2012 database and a database of 20 category objects containing 230,800 images showed that the framework had high precision and recall rates and less query time. Compared with the standard image retrieval framework, the improved image retrieval framework can detect the moving target quickly and effectively and has better robustness.
