Prominent Region Based Object Recognition using Complex Wavelets

Abstract

Content based image retrieval system has evolved off late as one of the demanding research area in the current age of information technology. Precision while retrieving images has been a main criterion for evaluation of retrieval techniques. Higher precision could be attained when matching prominent regions becomes a part of the retrieval system. We have developed a new technique to detect these prominent regions which would enhance the feature characteristics of an image thereby leading to higher precision in retrieval system.
