Abstract:
An image searching method includes: resizing an input image in question; generating 3D image identifiers for the resized input image in question; and performing an image search for the input image in question by using the 3D image identifiers. Said resizing an input image includes: extracting a black-and-white image and a color image from the input image in question; resizing the black-and-white image; and resizing the color image. Said generating 3D image identifiers includes: extracting an MGST feature of the input image in question; extracting an angular partition feature of the input image in question; and extracting a color feature of the input image in question. Further, said performing an image search includes: calculating similarity between representative colors of the input image in question and a reference image; and if the similarity is above a predetermined level, matching the 3D image identifiers for the two images.
Abstract:
An image signature creating method includes: creating a map by partitioning a still image using rings defined by concentric circles radially spaced apart from each other by a predetermined interval and radial lines circumferentially spaced apart from each other by a predetermined angle, the center of the still image being that of the concentric circles; and creating an image signature from the created map on the basis of distribution of pixels in regions defined by the rings and the radial lines. Accordingly, distribution of illegal contents is prevented and interrupted by search for and discrimination of a still image illegally deformed by a copying of or an intended attack on the still image.
