Joshi and Shashikala Tapaswi}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {The paper proposes an approach using genetic algorithm for computing the region based image similarity. The image is denoted using a set of segmented regions reflecting color and texture properties of an image. An image is associated with a family of image features corresponding to the regions. The resemblance of two images is then defined as the overall similarity between two families of image features, and quantified by a similarity measure, which integrates properties of all the regions in the images. A genetic algorithm is applied to decide the most plausible matching. The performance of the proposed method is illustrated using examples from an image database of general-purpose images, and is shown to produce good results. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {1}, number = {3}, year = {2007}, pages = {681 - 685}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/5728}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/3}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 3, 2007}, }
