본 논문에서는 새로운 형태 특징값으로서 형태 correlogram을 제안하고 이를 기반으로 한 효과적인 내용기반 영삼검색(content-based image retrieval) 방법을 제시한다. 기존읜 색상 correlogram은 색상 정보에 공간적인 정보를 부여함으로써 영상검색 성능을 향상시켰다. 그러나 이 특징값은 형태 정보를 포함하고 있지 않아서 색상이 다르면서 비슷한 윤곽선 형태를 갖는 물체의 검색에는 좋은 효과를 보이지 못한다.이 문제를 해결하기 위해 예지(edge)들의 correlogram인 형태(shape) correlogram을 제안한다. 색상 correlogram이 색상들의 거리에 따른 상관관계를 나타내는데 반해 형태 correlogram은 에지 각도들의 상관관게를 나타낸다. 형태 correlogram은 gradient 축과 각도 축을 가지는 2차원 특징 벡터(feature vector)로 표현된다. 각 축은 24개 빈(bin)으로 나뉘어져서 총 576개의 원소를 가지게 된다. 또한 본 논문에서는 형태 correlogram의 데이터 크기를 줄이고, 회전에 대해 불변인 특성을 가지게 하기 위해 투영(projected) 형태 correlogram을 제안한다. 실험결과를 통하여 본 논문에서 제안한 형태 correlogram과 투영 형태 correlogram을 사용한 영상검색 방법이 기존의 방법보다 성능면에서 우수함을 입증한다.

This paper proposes an image retrieval method to use the modified color correlogram. For retrieving images with less effect of the size variation of the regions in an image, the modified color correlogram is extracted by normalizing auto-correlogram and cross-correlogram of the color correlogram from a color image, and the similarity of two images is calculated by putting the less weight to the auto-correlogram of the modified color correlogram. Because proposed method uses the information of the color correlogram more effectively, we can get better results than that of color correlogram method. In the experiments, the performance of the proposed method is better as compared with that of the color cerrelogram method.

This paper proposes the color Cross-correlogram and its extraction method for efficient image retrieval. Color cross-correlogram represents the probability that different colors are existed at any two pixels whose distance is fixed in an image. Color cross-correlogram doesn't have the information about the region size that has a color, so color cross-correlogram can have good performance in retrieving images that have different size color regions. The experiments say that we can get the good retrieval results in the images that have various size color regions, and get the better retrieval results when using color cross-correlogram than those of retrieval using color correlogram.

Color correlogram is widely used in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) because it extracts not only the color distribution of pixels in images like color histogram, but also extracts the spatial information of pixels in the images. The color correlogram uses single color space. Therefore, the color correlograms does not have robust discriminative features. In this paper, we use both RGB and HSV color spaces together for the color correlogram to achieve better discriminative features. The proposed algorithm is tested on a large database of images and the results are compared with the single color space color correlogram. In simulation results, the proposed algorithm 5.63 average retrieval rank less than single color space correlogram.

Recently, there has been studied on feature extraction method for efficient content-based image retrieval. Especially, Many researchers have been studying on extracting feature from color Information, because of its advantages. This paper proposes a feature and its extraction method based on color correlogram that is extracted from color information in an image. the proposed method is computed from the image segmented into two parts; the complex part and the plain part. Our experiments show that the performance of the proposed method is better as compared with that of the original color correlogram method.

We propose a new content-based image retrieval using a block color co-occurrence matrix (BCCM) and pattern correlogram. In the proposed method, the color feature vectors are extracted by using BCCM that represents the probability of the co-occurrence of two mean colors within blocks. Also the pattern feature vectors are extracted by using pattern correlogram which is combined with spatial correlation of pattern. In the proposed pattern correlogram method. after block-divided image is classified into 48 patterns with respect to the change of the RGB color of the image, joint probability between the same pattern from the surrounding blocks existing at the fixed distance and the center pattern is calculated. Experimental results show that the proposed method can outperform the conventional methods as regards the precision and the size of the feature vector dimension.

In this study, we will construct a statistical model which considered the irregularity of observed time sequence in order to analyze sets of bioindex data gathered from stations in Lake Ontario for a number of years. We fit a linear model to account for the trend and seasonal component in an exploratory way and draw variogram and correlogram for further confirmatory studies.

This paper proposes an object-based image retrieval technique based on the dominant color pair information. Most of existing methods for content based retrieval extract the features from an image as a whole, instead of an object of interest. As a result, the retrieval performance tends to degrade due to the background colors. This paper proposes an object based retrieval scheme, in which an object of interest is used as a query and the similarity is measured on candidate regions of DB images where the object may exist. From the segmented image, the dominant color pair information between adjacent regions is used for selecting candidate regions. The similarity between the query image and DB image is measured by using the color correlogram technique. The dominant color pair information is robust against translation, rotation, and scaling. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed method has been improved by reducing the errors caused by background colors.

This paper presents a system of road extraction for traffic images from a single camera. The road in the images is subject to large changes in appearance because of environmental effects. The proposed system is based on the integration of color correlograms and random forest. The color correlogram depicts the color properties of an image properly. Using the random forest, road extraction is formulated as a learning paradigm. The combined effects of color correlograms and random forest create a robust system capable of extracting the road in very changeable situations.

We obtain the departure process of a D-BMAP/Geo/1/K queue. We also study the burstiness and correlation of the departure process. We have observed that the autocorrelation coefficients of the interdeparture time(correlogram) of the departure process may oscillated.
