Image data model for an efficient multi-criteria query: a case in medical databases

A Multi-faceted Browsing Interface for Digital Photo Collections

“…Advanced multimodal searching and browsing facilities based on user-defined facets allow the effective management of personal photo collections through highlevel, concept-based interactions. Systems which are able to deal with multi-criteria queries involving both metadata and content-based representations of images have been investigated both in the context of relational [17] and medical [8] databases. With respect to such systems, the novelty of Scenique consists in the ability of organizing pictures through multiple semantic and feature-based hierarchies by automatically associating photos to nodes of such dimensions.…”

Content-Based Medical Image Retrieval

“…The hyperspaced image data model previously discussed has been integrated into the MIMS prototype [176,196,[199][200][201].…”

Salient-Object-Based Image Query by Visual Content.

“…As image data is complex, a model that captures complete and meaningful information about an image is required. The model proposed in [8] provides a global view of an image. It supports both metadata and low level descriptions of images so that a multi-criteria query involving both metadata and low-level properties can be formulated.…”

“…A major work in this direction is the work in [4,8]. This work has developed and formalized a -91 --91 --144 --144 -similarity-based image query algebra compatible with the object-relational DBMS.…”
