- Abstract:
-
In image classification, few current classification algorithms classify images by their artistic attributes. An automatic image classification system based on artistic attributes was developed for classifying images in typical artistic styles such as photographs, Chinese paintings, watercolors, sketches, oil paintings, and so on. The system employed a support vector machine (SVM) as a classifier. Using a classification method at various levels, an SVM binary tree multiclass classification algorithm for image classification with respect to different artistic attributes was proposed. By analyzing the images with respect to the different artistic styles, some easily computed representative characteristics with good discriminability were extracted at each classification level. Experiments on a variety of characteristics at various levels and the total characteristics of classifiers were designed to evaluate the proposed classifier. Experimental results showed that the system has good classification performance.
