- Description: Similarity measure is an important research topic in image classification and retrieval. Given a type of image features, a good similarity measure should be able to retrieve similar images from the database while discard irrelevant images from the retrieval. Similarity measures in literature are typically distance based which measure the spatial distance between two feature vectors in high dimensional feature space. However, this type of similarity measures do not have any perceptual meaning and ignore the neighborhood influence in the similarity decision making process. In this paper, we propose a novel dissimilarity measure, which can measure both the distance and perceptual similarity of two image features in feature space. Results show the proposed similarity measure has a significant improvement over the traditional distance based similarity measure commonly used in literature.

- Description: In this paper, an improved algorithm for cuboid image segmentation is proposed. To address the two main limitations of the recently proposed cuboid segmentation algorithm, the improved algorithm substitutes colour quantization in HCL colour space with infinity norm distance in RGB colour space along with a different way to impose area thresholding. We also propose a new metric to evaluate the quality of segmentation. Experimental results show that the proposed cuboid segmentation algorithm significantly outperforms the existing cuboid segmentation algorithm in terms of quality of segmentation.
