An Approach to Image Retrieval for Image Databases

In this paper, a method is discussed to store and retrieve images efficiently from an image database on the basis of the data structure called E() representation. The E() representation is a spatial knowledge representation preserving the spatial information between objects embedded in symbolic images as an iconic index for the purpose of efficient image retrieval.
