A design of eigenvalue based CNN tool for image retrieval

Abstract

Now there are several methods for retrieving images. TBIR, CBIR and SBIR (Semantic Image Retrieval) are some significant methods among them. We propose in this article an effective CNN tool for image retrieval based on eigenvalues. This work is the expansion as a cyber-forensic tool of our newly suggested CNN-based SBIR scheme. Eigenvalues play a prominent role in apps for image retrieval. Eigenvalues are useful in the measurement and segmentation of an image's sharpness and compression process. In this research we used PCA algorithm to generate eigenvalues with corresponding images from an input image. The generated eigenvalues with corresponding images are trained by AlexNet (A pre-trained deep layer convolution neural network (CNN)). After the training process eigenvalues are given as input to the AlexNet (CNN Tool) and the corresponding images are retrieved based on eigenvalues. We noted that output images based on their eigenvalues are obtained with an outstanding 96.44 percent accuracy due to AlexNet training.
