VisualSEEk: a fully automated content-based image query system
, 1996
"... We describe a highly functional prototype system for searching by visual features in an image database. The VisualSEEk system is novel in that the user forms the queries by diagramming spatial arrangements of color regions. The system finds the images that contain the most similar arrangements of ..."

of similar regions. Prior to the queries, the system automatically extracts and indexes salient color regions from the images. By utilizing efficient indexing techniques for color information, region sizes and absolute and relative spatial locations, a wide variety of complex joint color/spatial queries may
Overview of the scalable video coding extension of the H.264/AVC standard
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS FOR VIDEO TECHNOLOGY IN CIRCUITS AND SYSTEMS FOR VIDEO TECHNOLOGY
, 2007
"... With the introduction of the H.264/AVC video coding standard, significant improvements have recently been demonstrated in video compression capability. The Joint Video Team of the ITU-T VCEG and the ISO/IEC MPEG has now also standardized a Scalable Video Coding (SVC) extension of the H.264/AVC stand ..."

Blobworld: Image segmentation using Expectation-Maximization and its application to image querying
- IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
, 1999
"... Retrieving images from large and varied collections using image content as a key is a challenging and important problem. We present a new image representation which provides a transformation from the raw pixel data to a small set of image regions which are coherent in color and texture. This "B ..."

;Blobworld" representation is created by clustering pixels in a joint color-texture-position feature space. The segmentation algorithm is fully automatic and has been run on a collection of 10,000 natural images. We describe a system that uses the Blobworld representation to retrieve images from this collection
A Parametric Texture Model based on Joint Statistics of Complex Wavelet Coefficients
- INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTER VISION
, 2000
"... We present a universal statistical model for texture images in the context of an overcomplete complex wavelet transform. The model is parameterized by a set of statistics computed on pairs of coefficients corresponding to basis functions at adjacent spatial locations, orientations, and scales. We de ..."

Constraint Query Languages
, 1992
"... We investigate the relationship between programming with constraints and database query languages. We show that efficient, declarative database programming can be combined with efficient constraint solving. The key intuition is that the generalization of a ground fact, or tuple, is a conjunction ..."

, we use quantifier elimination techniques from logic and the concept of data complexity from database theory. This framework is applicable to managing spatial data and can be combined with existing multidimensional searching algorithms and data structures.
Distance Browsing in Spatial Databases
, 1999
"... Two different techniques of browsing through a collection of spatial objects stored in an R-tree spatial data structure on the basis of their distances from an arbitrary spatial query object are compared. The conventional approach is one that makes use of a k-nearest neighbor algorithm where k is kn ..."

, the k +1 st neighbor can be obtained without having to calculate the k +1nearest neighbors from scratch. The incremental approach finds use when processing complex queries where one of the conditions involves spatial proximity (e.g., the nearest city to Chicago with population greater than a million
NeTra: A toolbox for navigating large image databases
- Multimedia Systems
, 1999
"... . We present here an implementation of NeTra, a prototype image retrieval system that uses color, texture, shape and spatial location information in segmented image regions to search and retrieve similar regions from the database. A distinguishing aspect of this system is its incorporation of a robu ..."
