A Study of Objective Evaluation Method for Image Retrieval Technology based on Shape and Color Features

Abstract

In this paper, we propose an objective evaluation model for image retrieval technology based on shape and color features. We created this model through (1) similarity rating test for every image pairs (2) and multi-dimensional scaling method, on 32 landscape photographs. Consequently, we could get psychological distances between every two images, and could evaluate image retrieval accuracy, referring to the distances.
