Integrated Region-Based Image Retrieval by James Z. Wang.

Content-based image retrieval is the set of techniques for retrieving relevant images from an image database on the basis of automatically­ derived image features. The need for efficient content-based image re­ trieval has increased tremendously in many application areas such as biomedicine, the mil...
