Abstract

This paper presents a summary of results of ongoing research on the impact of combining clustering and rele vance feedback techniques in a content-based image re trieval (CBIR) system. It describes a novel approach to learning the user’s goals and the relevance of each fea ture for a particular search. by employing a combination of Bayesian learning algorithm and cluster analysis tech niques. Results of experiments show that the proposed model exhibits good performance for moderate-size, uncon strained databases, encouraging further research and im provements.
