Abstract: In these years, there has been a gigantic growth in the generation of data. Innovations such as the Internet, social media and smart phones are the facilitators of this information boom. Since ancient times images were treated as an effective mode of communication. Even today most of the data generated is image data. The technology for capturing, storing and transferring images is well developed but efficient image retrieval is still a primitive area of research. Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is one such area where lot of research is still going on. CBIR systems rely on three aspects of the image content namely texture, shape and color. Application specific CBIR systems are effective whereas Generic CBIR systems are being explored. Previously, descriptors are used to extract shape, color or texture content features, but the effect of using more than one descriptor is under research and may yield better results. The paper presents the fusion of TSBTC n-ary (Thepade’s Sorted n-ary Block Truncation Coding) Global Color Features and Local Binary Pattern (LBP) Local Texture Features in Content Based Image with Different Color Places TSBTC n-ary devises global color features from an image. It is a faster and better technique compared to Block Truncation Coding. It is also rotation and scale invariant. When applied on an image TSBTC n-ary gives a feature vector based on the color space, if TSBTC n-ary is applied on the obtained LBP (Local Binary Patterns) of the image color planes, the feature vector obtained is be based on local texture content. Along with RGB, the Luminance chromaticity color space like YCbCr and Kekre’s LUV are also used in experimentation of proposed CBIR techniques. Wang dataset has been used for exploration of proposed method. It consists of 1000 images (10 categories having 100 images each). Obtained results have shown performance improvement using fusion of BTC extracted global color features and local texture features extracted with TSBTC n-ary applied on Local Binary Patterns (LBP).
