Abstract

In this paper, a new descriptor for the feature extraction of images in the image database is presented. The new descriptor called Contourlet Co-Occurrence is based on a combination of contourlet transform and Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM). In order to evaluate the proposed descriptor, we perform the comparative analysis of existing methods such as Contourlet [2], GLCM [14] descriptors with Contourlet Co-Occurrence descriptor for image retrieval. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method shows a slight improvement in the retrieval effectiveness.
