Abstract :
This paper presents a robust technique for Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) using fuzzy edge map of an image. Fuzzy compactness vector is computed from fuzzy edge map thresholded at different levels of the unsegmented image, which also incorporates gray level contrast information embedded in the edges. The resemblance of two images is defined as the similarity between the computed feature vectors.
