|
This article proposes a new method for image classification and image retrieval. The advantages of the proposed method are its high performance and requiring less memory compared to other methods. In order to extract image features, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), AlexNet, has been used. For image classification, we design a committee of four classifiers trained on graphics cards, narrowing the gap to human performance. For image retrieval, the similarity between extracted features from dataset images and features of the query image is calculated and the final results are visualized. Comprehensive experiments on Corel‐1k, Corel‐10k, Caltech‐101 object and Scene‐67 datasets have been investigated to find optimal parameters of the proposed method. The experiments demonstrate the high performance of the proposed method in comparison with the state‐of‐the‐art in the field.
