Fraunhofer Center for Assistive Information and Communication Solutions – AICOSDescription:
The goal of this thesis is to implement an efficient content based image database retrieval. The first stage of this project is to match a particular image to a database which might contain thousands of images. The advanced stage is to match an image region from a video frame to an image on a database, in real-time if possible.
The choice of image representation and image matching is key for the efficiency of this algorithm, the matching will not be done using the whole image data (pixels). At an initial stage, the image database might be local to the image retrieving device, in order not to account for data transmission latency. The outcome of the algorithm might be a small set of the most similar images.
