An Image Retrieval Method Using Inquiries on Spatial Relationships

People often want to retrieve images by referring to pictorial features rather than a bibliographic index. For example, "find a person's picture with Mt. Fuji in the center" requires that the language query match the pictorial arrangement. This paper proposes a two-dimensional image retrieval method based on the assumption that objects in an image are extracted as polygons. The method uses natural language words referring to spatial relationships between objects in an image as queries, and the objects coordinates as pictorial indexes. First, the problems of spatial relationships are discussed. Next, a proposal is made to represent the spatial relationships together with their fuzziness by using the coordinates of the objects in rule representation form. Our method is implemented in a spatial relationship-based feature retrieval/description system (SPADE). Examples of two SPADE databases, one containing Japanese "ukiyoe" images and another containing document images, are discussed.
