Batik Images Retrieval Using Pre-trained model and K-Nearest Neighbor

Identification of crops is an important topic in the agricultural domain. Hyperspectral remote sensing data are very useful for crop feature extraction and classification. Remote sensing data is an unstructured data and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) can work on unstructured data efficiently. This paper presents an evaluation of CNN for crop classification using the Indian Pines standard dataset obtained from the AVIRIS sensor and the study area dataset obtained from the EO-1hyperion sensor. Optimized CNN has been tuned by training the model on different parameters. It has been compared with two classification algorithms: Deep Neural Network (DNN) and Convolutional Autoencoder. According to the test results, the proposed optimized CNN model provided better results as compared to the other two methods. CNN has given 97 ± 0.58% overall accuracy for the Indian Pines standard dataset and 78 ± 2.43% for our study area dataset.

Recent years have seen a meteoric rise in the usage of enormous image databases due to advancements in multimedia technologies. One of the most critical technologies for image processing nowadays is image retrieval. This study uses convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for content-based image retrieval (CBIR). With the ever-growing number of digital photos, practical methods for retrieving these images are crucial. CNNs are incredibly efficient in many computer vision applications. Improving the efficacy and precision of image retrieval systems is the primary goal of our research into using deep learning. The paper starts with a thorough analysis of the current state of CBIR methods and the difficulties they face. Afterwards, it explores CNN’s design and operation, focusing on CNN’s capacity to learn hierarchical features from images autonomously. This paper also looks at how the model performs when it alters its hyperparameters, transfer learning techniques, and CNN topologies. The insights obtained from these experiments enhance the comprehension of the elements impacting CNN effectiveness in CBIR. Finally, our study shows that CNNs can change the game for image search by transforming CBIR systems. This research adds to the expanding body of information about using cutting-edge deep learning algorithms to make image retrieval more efficient and accurate.

As the use of digital media increases, effective retrieval and management techniques become more important. In order to extract useful information from this huge amount of data, many content based image retrieval (CBIR) systems have been developed. A typical CBIR system captures image features such as color, texture, or shape of objects in the query image and tries to retrieve images from the database with similar features. The main advantage of CBIR systems with relevance feedback is that these systems take into account the gap between the high-level concepts and low-level features and subjectivity of human perception of visual content. In this paper, a CBIR system based on color histogram has been presented and a new approach for image storage and retrieval called association-based image retrieval (ABIR) has been studied. The results of both systems have been shown.

There is a growing trend for using content‐based image retrieval (CBIR) systems these days because of the constantly growing interest in digital content. Therefore, the ability of the CBIR to perform the CBIR process will depend on the feature extraction process and its basis, for the retrieval will be done on. Numerous researchers put forward various techniques for feature extraction to enhance the nature of the system. Since features play a very key role in enhancing performance, various features can be used collectively to attain the requisite goal. To retain this in mind, we present in this paper a multifeature fusion system, where three features are integrated and form one feature to improve the situation of retrieval. For this purpose, scale‐invariant feature transform (SIFT), speeded‐up robust features (SURF), and histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) features are adopted. These features are common features that deliver information about the shape of the object and for matching purposes, two techniques of distance matching such as Euclidean and Hausdrauff distance are adopted. To assess the performance of the proposed multifeature‐based CBIR approach, experiments were conducted with the usage of a MATLAB simulator. The Corel‐1000 dataset, consisting of 10,000 images in 100 semantic classes, turned into applied, with each magnificence containing 100 images. A subset of 2500 images across 50 semantic classes was used to train the system. This research aligns with industry, innovation, and infrastructure by contributing to advancements in image processing and retrieval systems. Key characteristic descriptors, along with SIFT, SURF, HOG, texture, and multicharacteristic combinations, were extracted for retrieval functions. The results display that the usage of the Hausdrauff distance as a similarity degree outperforms Euclidean distance, accomplishing retrieval accuracies of 80.02% for HOG, 77.9% for SIFT, 79. 8% for SURF, 77.2% for texture, and 84.2% for multicharacteristic combinations, surpassing Euclidean distance results via 1.7%–3.6% across capabilities. These findings underscore the effectiveness of Hausdrauff distance in enhancing retrieval precision within the CBIR framework.

The classification process is also used in artificial intelligence (AI), which is intelligence created by a computer, so that it can mimic actions like humans in general and can capture events that occur in the surrounding environment. Seeing the very high development of the international coffee trade, it can be concluded that if there is a type of coffee that has the best quality, it will be sought after by coffee importing countries. Batik is cloth that is painted using canting and liquid wax to form motifs or patterns that have high artistic value. Batik has a variety of unique and distinctive patterns that reflect the region where the batik motif originates. One area that has batik motifs in Indonesia is batik in the North Coastal Region of Java Island. In this area, various batiks are produced according to the characteristics of the area itself. Regarding information related to the introduction of types of batik motifs, perhaps it comes from people who have batik skills and batik craftsmen who best understand batik as a whole, while the general public does not really know about batik motifs. Because batik has different motifs and batik motifs in some areas have motifs that are almost uniform but not the same. One of the technologies that can be used is deep learning. The purpose of this study is to propose a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Transfer Learning (TL) model to be implemented in an intelligent system for the process of image classification of coffee bean types. The method used in this study is the PSOCNN transfer learning model VGG16 From the results of tests carried out on 2 models, namely the CNN model, the PSOCNN transfer learning model VGG16. it was found that the highest accuracy was obtained when classifying batik motives images using the PSOCNN-transfer learning model VGG16, which was 83%. The level of accuracy that is increased when compared to the usual CNN model indicates that the use of transfer learning has a good effect on the level of accuracy obtained. Although an increase of 6% is significant, but with this increase it opens up opportunities to increase even higher by using other transfer learning models

In this paper, we propose an effective retraining method for optimizing the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) features towards Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). To accomplish this goal, we utilize a pretrained CNN model, and we adapt it to a lightweight fully convolutional model which allows for producing compact image representations, reducing the storage requirements. Subsequently, we obtain the feature representations of the last convolutional layer using the max pooling operation, and we retrain the weights of the convolutional layers in a fully unsupervised fashion, aiming to produce more efficient compact image descriptors which improve the retrieval performance both in terms of time and precision. The experimental validation on three publicly available image retrieval datasets indicates the effectiveness of the proposed method in learning more efficient representations for the retrieval task, accomplishing significantly enhanced performance in all the used datasets.

Batik is an Indonesian cultural heritage known for its diverse motifs; however, manual classification of these motifs remains a significant challenge. This study aims to develop a batik motif classification model using the ResNet50 architecture enhanced with data augmentation to improve model accuracy. The dataset consists of four batik motif classes: Kawung, Mega Mendung, Parang, and Truntum. In this research, the model was trained using fine-tuning on ResNet50, with additional CNN layers for feature extraction. The results demonstrated that the proposed model achieved a highest accuracy of 97.80% on test data and 96.80% on validation data, significantly outperforming methods without data augmentation. Researchers will also compare accuracy with other deep learning models for classifying Keraton Batik images. This study concludes that applying a fine-tuned ResNet50 model with additional CNN layers and data augmentation effectively classifies batik motifs, offering substantial potential to automate batik motif recognition and supports digital preservation and development of batik in the cultural and creative industries.

Several Deep Learning (DL) and medical image Machine Learning (ML) methods have been investigated for efficient data representations of medical images, such as image classification, Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR), and image segmentation. CBIR helps medical professionals make decisions by retrieving similar cases and images from electronic medical image databases. CBIR needs expressive data representations for similar image identification and knowledge discovery in massive medical image databases explored by distinct algorithmic methods. In this study, an Improved Whale Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning-Driven Retinal Fundus Image Grading and Retrieval (IWOADL-RFIGR) approach was developed. The presented IWOADL-RFIGR method mainly focused on retrieving and classifying retinal fundus images. The proposed IWOADL-RFIGR method used the Bilateral Filtering (BF) method to preprocess the retinal images, a lightweight Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based on scratch learning with Euclidean distance-based similarity measurement for image retrieval, and the Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) model for image classification. Finally, the IWOA was used as a hyperparameter optimization technique to improve overall performance. The experimental validation of the IWOADL-RFIGR model on a benchmark dataset exhibited better performance than other models.

Recently, Content-based medical image retrieval (CBMIR) systems enable fast diagnosis via the assessment of the visual information in medical application. Most of the state-of-the-art CBMIR systems facing few issues: computationally expensive due to the usage of high dimensional feature vectors and complex classifier/clustering approaches. The reasons behind this are, inability to properly handle the “semantic gap” and the high intra-class versus inter-class variability problem of the medical image database (like radiographic image database). This yields a crucial demand for developing computationally efficient and highly effective retrieval system. For this purpose, the present study proposed an efficient retrieval system which has a four-fold: First, pre-processing and Feature extraction of input image using canonical correlation analysis (CCA). By this approach extracted the feature in both pixel and feature domains and examined more rigorously. Second, applied Fuzzy C means clustering of pixel intensity values as features based on the singular value decomposition. Through this can grouping, the image based on the pixel intensity value. Third, deep convolutional neural network with SVM classifier which makes implementable and requires only a compact feature vector representation of the stored database image with their class levels during retrieval. Finally evaluated the performance based on the measure of Mean Average Precision, Correct rate (CR), Error rate (ER), Accuracy. The classification results and learned features are used for the purpose of retrieving the medical images in a database. The proposed retrieval system performs better than the traditional approach in terms of measuring average value of precision, recall, f-measure and accuracy 95.9%, 94.96%, 95.37% and 95.798% respectively. The suggested approach is best suited towards retrieving the medical images for various part of the body.

Quality assurance of data prior to use in automated pipelines and image analysis would assist in safeguarding against biases and incorrect interpretation of results. Automation of quality assurance steps would further improve robustness and efficiency of these methods, motivating widespread adoption of techniques. Previous work by our group demonstrated the ability of convolutional neural networks (CNN) to efficiently classify head and neck (H&N) computed-tomography (CT) images for the presence of dental artifacts (DA) that obscure visualization of structures and the accuracy of Hounsfield units. In this work we demonstrate the generalizability of our previous methodology by validating CNNs on six external datasets, and the potential benefits of transfer learning with fine-tuning on CNN performance. 2112 H&N CT images from seven institutions were scored as DA positive or negative. 1538 images from a single institution were used to train three CNNs with resampling grid sizes of 643, 1283 and 2563. The remaining six external datasets were used in five-fold cross-validation with a data split of 20% training/fine-tuning and 80% validation. The three pre-trained models were each validated using the five-folds of the six external datasets. The pre-trained models also underwent transfer learning with fine-tuning using the 20% training/fine-tuning data, and validated using the corresponding validation datasets. The highest micro-averaged AUC for our pre-trained models across all external datasets occurred with a resampling grid of 2563 (AUC = 0.91 ± 0.01). Transfer learning with fine-tuning improved generalizability when utilizing a resampling grid of 2563 to a micro-averaged AUC of 0.92 ± 0.01. Despite these promising results, transfer learning did not improve AUC when utilizing small resampling grids or small datasets. Our work demonstrates the potential of our previously developed automated quality assurance methods to generalize to external datasets. Additionally, we showed that transfer learning with fine-tuning using small portions of external datasets can be used to fine-tune models for improved performance when large variations in images are present.

The main aim of this study is to introduce a new hybrid deep learning model for biomedical image classification. We propose a novel convolutional neural network (CNN), named HybridNeXt, for detecting pulmonary embolism (PE) from computed tomography (CT) images. To evaluate the HybridNeXt model, we created a new dataset consisting of two classes: (1) PE and (2) control. The HybridNeXt architecture combines different advanced CNN blocks, including MobileNet, ResNet, ConvNeXt, and Swin Transformer. We specifically designed this model to combine the strengths of these well-known CNNs. The architecture also includes stem, downsampling, and output stages. By adjusting the parameters, we developed a lightweight version of HybridNeXt, suitable for clinical use. To further improve the classification performance and demonstrate transfer learning capability, we proposed a deep feature engineering (DFE) method using a multilevel discrete wavelet transform (MDWT). This DFE model has three main phases: (i) feature extraction from raw images and wavelet bands, (ii) feature selection using iterative neighborhood component analysis (INCA), and (iii) classification using a k-nearest neighbors (kNN) classifier. We first trained HybridNeXt on the training images, creating a pretrained HybridNeXt model. Then, using this pretrained model, we extracted features and applied the proposed DFE method for classification. The HybridNeXt model achieved a test accuracy of 90.14%, while our DFE model improved accuracy to 96.35%. Overall, the results confirm that our HybridNeXt architecture is highly accurate and effective for biomedical image classification. The presented HybridNeXt and HybridNeXt-based DFE methods can potentially be applied to other image classification tasks.

Introduction: Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) retrieves the images from the vast image repositories. Research in the CBIR domain gets attention due to the massive number of images generated by the mobiles and various image-capturing machines. Objectives: Any image retrieval system’s primary goal is to reduce the semantic gap between low-level features and high-level perception. Methods: The CBIR techniques are classified into multiple categories based on the feature extraction and retrieval mechanism. These categories are feature-based, machine-learning-based, and deep-learning-based methods. The pioneer techniques for each category are explained in detail in this chapter. Results: The comparative analysis has been done to highlight the advantages of techniques over others. Conclusion: The various application area of the CBIR has been described. The most evolving application is the content-based medical image retrieval (CBMIR) system. The applicability of the CBMIR system in different medical science domains is explained in detail.

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) techniques will be part of the next generation of search engines. However, even with a suitable retrieval method, real-time image retrieval from a large image database still requires extremely high computational power. In this paper, a Web-based image database indexing and retrieval system is described. It uses fast CBIR with Beowulf-Class parallel computing engine (Super Abacus) to efficiently and effectively shorten the retrieval time. Content-based image retrieval with several parallel algorithms for images which query different color spaces and the compressed-domain of the images are developed to achieve higher efficiency. Text-based query is also supported for images using a conventional annotation approach.

This paper presents an image representation and matching framework for image categorization in medical image archives. Categorization enables one to determine automatically, based on the image content, the examined body region and imaging modality. It is a basic step in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems, the goal of which is to augment text-based search with visual information analysis. CBIR systems are currently being integrated with picture archiving and communication systems for increasing the overall search capabilities and tools available to radiologists. The proposed methodology is comprised of a continuous and probabilistic image representation scheme using Gaussian mixture modeling (GMM) along with information-theoretic image matching via the Kullback-Leibler (KL) measure. The GMM-KL framework is used for matching and categorizing X-ray images by body regions. A multidimensional feature space is used to represent the image input, including intensity, texture, and spatial information. Unsupervised clustering via the GMM is used to extract coherent regions in feature space that are then used in the matching process. A dominant characteristic of the radiological images is their poor contrast and large intensity variations. This presents a challenge to matching among the images, and is handled via an illumination-invariant representation. The GMM-KL framework is evaluated for image categorization and image retrieval on a dataset of 1500 radiological images. A classification rate of 97.5% was achieved. The classification results compare favorably with reported global and local representation schemes. Precision versus recall curves indicate a strong retrieval result as compared with other state-of-the-art retrieval techniques. Finally, category models are learned and results are presented for comparing images to learned category models.

Loop closure detection is the core part of the visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) for autonomous robots. In the dynamic environments, loop closure detection turns to be a very difficult problem compared to the static scenario. This paper proposes a novel approach based on convolutional autoencoder neural network (CAENN) architecture for extracting images features, and then uses Euclidean loss for minimizing the difference between the extracted feature and the gist feature which has the ability of scene recognition. In order to improve the accuracy and recall rate for loop closure detection in the dynamic scenario, the perspective transformation and dynamic object are applied in the process of the construction of the training set. And by calculating the Manhattan distance between the two image feature vectors, the loop closure is accepted when the distance is smaller than the threshold. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method obtains better accuracy and recall rate compared to the commonly used gist feature method and has a lower cost on time and space compared to the BOW method and AlexNet method in loop closure detection.
