Generally, the database is a gathering of data that is arranged for simple storage, retrieval and modernize. This data comprises of numerous structures like text, table, and image, outline and chart and so on. Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) is valuable for calculating the huge amount of image databases and records and for distinguishes retrieving similar images. Rather than text-based searching, CBIR effectively recovers images that are similar like query image. CBIR assumes a significant role in various areas including restorative finding, industry estimation, geographical information satellite frameworks (GIS frameworks), and biometrics; online searching and authentic research, etc. Here different medical database images are considered to the CBIR procedure is done by the proposed strategy. The proposed method considers the input features are shape, texture feature, wavelet feature, and SIFT feature. To retrieve the input image based on the features, the suggested method utilizes artificial neural network (ANN) structure. Back-propagation technique, which is an organizational structure for learning is utilized for training the neural network framework. Trial demonstrates that the proposed work improves the results of the retrieval system. From the outcomes minimizes the image retrieval time and maximum Precision 87.3% in distance based ANN process.

Automatic change detection in remote sensing images of a specified image acquired at various time period, which is unique and fascinating idea of image processing. The significance of change-detection techniques depends on probability of recognizing the changes in land covers by investigating multispectral images acquired at different session. Based on the previous papers accurate change detection (CD) is not yet identified. Enhanced Back-Propagation Neural Network (EBPNN) technique for CD is used to enhance the accuracy based on many existing techniques. This method involves an Adaptive Median Filter (AMF) that is responsible to remove the noise identified in remote sensing images. Moreover, feature extraction is achieved with the Tamura and Law’s mask features by which minute features are extorted from the images. By contrasting numerous existing techniques, the precision is measured with the support of different parameters.

Convolutional neural network (CNN) is the generally used efficient methodology for image analysis.

Defect detection in metallic surface images is a challenging task in the image analysis process. The data clustering and optimization techniques have been widely used for image segmentation and the combination of these two approaches improves the output stability as well as convergence speed. In this work developed an automatic, efficient method for the detection and segmentation of coating defects in metal surfaces. The Fuzzy c-means (FCM) and Firefly algorithm (FA) are well-known and popular methods to discover the image information comprising indiscriminate objects and solves many complex problems involved in image segmentation. In this paper, proposed a new technique for the coated metal surface defect detection using the hybridization of two methods, FCM with FA (FCM-FA). The results from experiments verified the efficiency of the developed FCM with FA over comparison with three existing methods in terms of evaluation parameters of defect detection for scanned high resolution images. It can be seen from the experimental results that the incorporated algorithm has the potential to segment and identify the defected regions from the coated surface.

The high sensor cost for producing images with superior spectral and spatial qualities in remote sensing application have led to the development of image fusion algorithms. Image fusion technique combines a Panchromatic image and a Multispectral image with an aim to produce images with excellent spatial and spectral qualities. One of the major factors that affect the performance of any image fusion algorithm is the capability of the algorithm in extracting the spatial and spectral data from the respective images and how effective the so extracted information is blended together. One of the recently developed spectral domain algorithm to perform image fusion in remote sensing applications is Spatial Frequency Discrete Wavelet Transform abbreviated as SFDWT. The excellence of SFDWT image fusion algorithm is already proven better than the prevailing algorithms based on Discrete Wavelet Transform. This paper is coined with an eye to realize the performance of SFDWT based image fusion algorithm with respect to IHS-DWT, which being an enhanced form of a typical DWT based image fusion algorithm. The performance of SFDWT and IHS-DWT based image fusion algorithms will be evaluated by applying both techniques in the fusion of urban images received from Pléiades sensors with 1:4 resolution ratio using qualitative and quantitative image quality assessment methods. The consequence of varying the decomposition level on the quality of the images produced using SFDWT image fusion technique and three variants of IHS-DWT techniques based on substitution, averaging and maximum selection will be also evaluated. From the experimental analysis done using MATLAB simulation, it will be vivid that images obtained using image fusion algorithm based on SFDWT are much better than that obtained using IHS-DWT technique with excellent spatial and spectral qualities.
