Abstract

A new, semantically meaningful technique for querying the images from a spectral image database is proposed. The technique is based on the use of both color- and texture features. The color features are calculated from spectral images by using the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) when methods of Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) are used for constructing the texture features. The importance of texture features in a querying is seen in experimental results, which are given by using a real spectral image database. Also the differences between the results gained by the use of co-occurrence matrix and LBP are introduced.
