Keywords:
image classification, shape based descriptors, efficiency, elliptical fourier analysis, Elliptical fourier descriptor.Abstract
The amount of images being uploaded to the internet is rapidly increasing. Therefore, an important research
topic is how to manage and perform classification of a large amount of images by using the computational resource in a
efficient manner. For that purpose, Classification of the images should be based on contents of images. Various image
processing methods can be used to classify the images such as color based, shape based, texture based, histogram based
etc. In this paper, we have used shape based Elliptical Fourier descriptors for content based image classification. So,
efficient algorithm should be designed for classification of images with proper parameters like number of harmonics,
sampling points and parameter for classification of images.
