| Abstract | The overall objective of this paper is to present an extended application of Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) over distributed (decentralized) image databases. Traditional image retrieval system design has implicitly relied on a local (centralized) query server, such as IBM's QBIC [1], Columbia's VisualSEEk [2], MIT's PhotoBook [3], and UCSD's Viagemâ„¢ [4]. With the growing popularity of the internet, however, the focus of the research in this area has been shifted toward content query over distributed databases. Ng et al. [5] has studied a peer-clustering model for the query with the assumption that the image collection at each peer node falls under one category. Even though, this assumption is effective for preliminary studies, it is unable to implant the practical end-user behaviors. Lee et al. [6] has introduced a novel approach to study practical scenarios where multiple image categories exist in each individual database in the distributed storage network. This approach is proven to be an effective method to improve retrieval precision via identifying the community neighborhood who shares similar content collection. The main focus of this paper is to study behavior of a CBIR engine in an interactive distributed environment. In the proposed approach, the query image is sent to all registered databases in the network. Response of each database is then collected and transferred to a local server where a supervised relevance identification approach is applied to identify final outcome of the search. Response of each database is quantified via estimating the statistical resemblance of top image candidates to the existing query image. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate feasibility of the proposed methodology. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
