To address these drawbacks, in this paper a content-based image retrieval method is presented based on multi-feature fusion of principal component, oriented-gradient and color histogram. The idea for the proposed method is: firstly, input image is grayscale and flattened into a one- dimensional vector, and the first n principal components from the vector yielded by the PCA algorithm are extracted, in other word, input image is represented as a nĂ—1 dimensional PCA feature vector. Secondly, to remedy color and orientation information missed by PCA, oriented-gradient and color histograms are used to extract orientation and color features respectively. Thirdly, extracted oriented-gradient and color histograms are merged with PCA features to generate the multi-feature representation of the input image. This paper confirms that the proposed multi-feature method can better represent an input image and can easily measure the similarity between images. The experiments are carried out and evaluated based on Corel-1000 , the target method is significantly better than the four popular methods. }, issn = {1746-7659}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jics/22413.html} }
