We propose a method for content-based retrieving solar magnetograms. We use the SDO Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager output collected with SunPy PyTorch libraries. We create a mathematical representation of the magnetic field regions of the Sun in the form of a vector. Thanks to this solution we can compare short vectors instead of comparing full-disk images. In order to decrease the retrieval time, we used a fully-connected autoencoder, which reduced the 256-element descriptor to a 32-element semantic hash. The performed experiments and comparisons proved the efficiency of the proposed approach. Our approach has the highest precision value in comparison with other state-of-the-art methods. The presented method can be used not only for solar image retrieval but also for classification tasks.
Large-scale image repositories are challenging to perform queries based on the content of the images. The paper proposes a novel, nested-dictionary data structure for indexing image local features. The method transforms image local feature vectors into two-level hashes and builds an index of the content of the images in the database. The algorithm can be used in database management systems. We implemented it with an example image descriptor and deployed in a relational database. We performed the experiments on two image large benchmark datasets.
Content-based image retrieval methods develop rapidly with a growing scale of image repositories. They are usually based on comparing and indexing some image features. We developed a new algorithm for finding objects in images by traversing their edges. Moreover, we describe the objects by histograms of local features and angles. We use such a description to retrieve similar images fast. We performed extensive experiments on three established image datasets proving the effectiveness of the proposed method.
