Features composition for proficient and real time retrieval in content based image retrieval system

Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems employ colour as primary feature with texture and shape as secondary features. Very few systems exploit spatial features. None of the available systems combines all three visual features, texture, shape and location, for organization and retrieval. In this paper a simple, image retrieval system is presented. The proposed system uses weighted combination of integrated texture features, shape features of texture regions.
