Nowadays, most of the research works in the area of image retrieval try to build an image signature by considering the image as a whole. In this paper, we propose an alternative based on the detection of some salient points in the image. For this purpose, we propose a new efficient salient point detector based on a wavelet transform. The efficiency of our detector lies in the representation of the wavelet coefficients by a zerotree data structure and by a saliency formulation that does not favor any direction. Thus, the detected salient points are located on sharp region boundaries whatever their direction. From the detected salient points, we build a color/texture signature by using jointly the well-known color correlogram. extended to salient features and rotated wavelet filter responses. Experimental results conducted by adopting a global salient approach and a local salient approach show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. |
