Abstract
Image annotation plays an important role in bridging the semantic gap between low level features and high level semantic contents in image access. In this paper, such a task is tackled by annotating regions which are primitives of a visual scene. We propose a probabilistic model to characterize spatial context for region annotation. Such a model provides a unifying framework integrating both feature distribution models and spatial context models. A wide range of advanced modeling techniques can be utilized to further extend this framework. The approach is also potentially scalable to a large number of semantic concepts and a large number of images. Experimental results based on simple parametric models demonstrate promising results of our approach by investigating the impacts of neighbors, segmentation, and visual features
