There is an accelerating demand to access and work over the visual content of documents. Because of the insufficiency of text-based techniques for storing this data, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) systems have become a promising field. Due this fact, in this study a CBIR system is implemented that is Mpeg-7 compliant and ORDBMS based. The database contains images and their content summaries that are parsed from XML files. The summaries describe their dominant colors, color histograms, color spaces and labels, in order to be compliant with Mpeg-7. The query process requires only the summary not the image itself. Software implementation of the system is based on JSP and servlet technologies using Oracle database and Tomcat web server. It is shown that the usage of these tools in the proposed architecture brings security, portability, and speed.

Optical flow based video frame segmentation and segment classification
Akpınar, Samet; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Department of Computer Engineering (2018)
Video information retrieval is a field of multimedia research enabling us to extract desired semantic information from video data. In content-based video information retrieval, visual content obtained from video scenes is utilized. For developing methods to cope with content-based video information retrieval in terms of temporal concepts such as action, event, etc., representation of temporal information becomes critical. In this thesis, action detection is tackled based on a temporal video representation m...
Rescheduling unrelated parallel machines with total flow time and total disruption cost criteria
Ozlen, M.; Azizoğlu, Meral (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)
In this paper, we consider a rescheduling problem where a set of jobs has already been assigned to unrelated parallel machines. When a disruption occurs on one of the machines, the affected jobs are rescheduled, considering the efficiency and the schedule deviation measures. The efficiency measure is the total flow time, and the schedule deviation measure is the total disruption cost caused by the differences between the initial and current schedules. We provide polynomial-time solution methods to the follo...
Comparison of multidimensional data access methods for feature-based image retrieval
Arslan, Serdar; Saçan, Ahmet; Açar, Esra; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Yazıcı, Adnan (2010-11-18)
Within the scope of information retrieval, efficient similarity search in large document or multimedia collections is a critical task. In this paper, we present a rigorous comparison of three different approaches to the image retrieval problem, including cluster-based indexing, distance-based indexing, and multidimensional scaling methods. The time and accuracy tradeoffs for each of these methods are demonstrated on a large Corel image database. Similarity of images is obtained via a featurebased similarity...
Prediction of Protein-Protein Interaction Relevance of Articles Using References
Calli, Cagatay (2009-09-16)
Classifying documents as protein-protein interaction (PPI) relevant or not is the first step towards extracting meaningful PPI data from article content. Currently, this classification step is handled manually by expert curators. A number of text-mining methods have been proposed to tackle this problem, using abstracts without references. We propose that article references contain important information that can be used to enhance these previous techniques. We trained an SVM classifier solely based on refere...
Joint utilization of fixed and variable-length codes for improving synchronization immunity for image transmission
Alatan, Abdullah Aydın (1998-01-01)
Robust transmission of images is achieved by using fixed and variable-length coding together without much loss in compression efficiency. The probability distribution function of a DCT coefficient can be divided into two regions using a threshold; so that one portion contains roughly equiprobable transform coefficients. While fixed-length coding, which is a powerful solution to the synchronization problem, is used in this inner equiprobable region without sacrificing compression, the outer (saturating) regi...
