Abstract

This paper proposes a new perceptual hashing based approach for Image Retrieval. Information in form of images is increasing at a very fast rate therefore there is need for faster and effective retrieval of specific image from image repositories. Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is considered most efficient to search large image collections. The proposed method uses perceptual hash function which calculates similar hash value for similar images. Finally, using an adequate distance or similarity function to compare two perceptual hash values, it can be decided whether two images are perceptually different or not. Perceptual image hash functions can be used e.g. for the identification, authentication or integrity verification of images. In this paper we also propose a hash algorithm that is robust and secure to non malicious manipulation and sensitive to the malicious tampering. Keywords - Content based Image Retrieval (CBIR), Perceptual Hash algorithm, Image Retrieval using Perceptual Hashing, Query by Image Content (QBIC).
