Content Based Image Retrieval Using Texture Contents

Amina Khatra

Abstract: Textual information about images can be easily searched using existing technology, and it requires humans to manually describe each image in the database. This is impractical for very large databases or for images that are generated automatically. It is also possible to miss images that use different synonyms in their descriptions. CBIR is one of the most important and effective image retrieval methods used in different areas such as medical applications and being widely studied in both academia and industry.
