Medical Image Retrieval Based on Low Level Featuresand Semantic Features[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2004, 9(2): 220. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20040239.
a new medical image retrieval approach based on low level features and semantic features is proposed. The low level features include gray
moment and texture features
which are selected by genetic algorithm. These features can't express the human's understanding of the images. Directly using these features can't get satisfying results
so the semantic features are needed. The image describing in the image report by doctors are chosen for semantic content. Experiment results show that the retrieval result by low features and semantic features are better than only by low features.
