Image retrieval using 2D Gabor functions

Abstract:- The retrieval of images from a large database of images is an important and emerging area of research. High-resolution images in the physical database are decomposed into sets of image features which are stored in the logical database. Currently a few image retrieval systems use texture as features to search images. In this paper 2D image is processed using a set of Gabor filter to derive a feature vector representing the image. This method is useful for processing large collections of image data
