Title
A Classification Method of Images Based on Composition and Its Application to Image Retrieval
Abstract
We propose a visual query method for image retrieval, in which the user expresses the composition of the target image by selecting one of the composition types presented by the system, and also propose an image classification method to derive composition types from an image database. From the viewpoint of communication between the system and its user, we point out the problem of visual query methods using concrete images as queries. Though suited to convey visual image properties, they grow the ambiguity in the system's interpretation of queries. To manage this tradeoff, we implemented our methods in a prototype system and derived composition types from an image database to show how our query method works in image retrieval.
