| Abstract | Image collections, in particular those accessed via photo sharing sites, are expanding at a rapid rate. At the same time, internet traffic from mobile devices such as smartphones is growing at a similar speed, and hence efficient and effective techniques for managing and querying these large image repositories from mobile devices are highly sought after. In this paper, we show that this is possible using a very fast method for performing content-based image retrieval of JPEG compressed images that naturally lends itself to mobile retrieval. Our approach performs retrieval directly in the compressed domain of JPEG but, unlike previous techniques, does not require partial decompression of the encoded image data. We employ image adapted Huffman tables, which are stored in the header of JPEG files, as image descriptors and thus not only eliminate the need for decoding but require transfer of only a fraction of the image files. Image similarity is defined as the similarity between DC and AC Huffman table entries, and is shown to lead to good retrieval performance. On a benchmark database, we demonstrate retrieval accuracy similar to common compressed domain and pixel domain retrieval algorithms, yet achieve a speedup of more than 30-fold (compared to JPEG domain techniques) and more than 250-fold (compared to MPEG-7 descriptors) respectively for online image retrieval. A mobile retrieval application is shown to provide an effective way of performing image retrieval from the photo sharing website Flickr while significantly reducing bandwidth and power consumption requirements. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
