Abstract: | Multimedia mobile devices have created new possibilities for developing and accessing a variety of multimedia items such as
images, audio and video clips. Personal multimedia items are, nowadays, being consumed at an enormous rate. Therefore, the
management of these media items has become a pressing problem. In this paper, a client-server content-based image retrieval
framework for mobile platforms is developed, which provides the capability of content-based query and browsing from mobile
devices. The proposed framework provides an adaptive user interface and a generic structure, which supports a wide range of
mobile devices. In this framework, a client requests the server for retrieval of particular images with a particular content.
The server performs a content-based retrieval of images from a selected database and streams the retrieved results back to
the client in an efficient way. The query results are transmitted over a wireless network and a certain number of similar
images are rendered on the mobile device screen using thumbnail sizes. The proposed framework serves as a basis of content-based
image retrieval on mobile devices. It addresses several important challenges such as hardware and software limitations as
well as efficient use of the available network bandwidth. |
