Abstract

In this paper, we propose a Web image search result organizing method to facilitate user browsing. We formalize this problem as a salient image region pattern extraction problem. Given the images returned by Web search engine, we first segment the images into homogeneous regions and quantize the environmental regions into image codewords. The salient codeword "phrases" are then extracted and ranked based on a regression model learned from human labeled training data. According to the salient "phrases", images are assigned to different clusters, with the one nearest to the centroid as the entry for the corresponding cluster. Satisfying experimental results show the effectiveness of our proposed method.
