Texture Based Firearm Striations Analysis for Forensics Image Retrieval

  • Conference paper
Image Processing and Communications Challenges 4

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing ((AISC,volume 184))

Summary

In this article, we propose a Content-Based Image Retrieval method for some identification in forensic fields. An expert simply places the image as a query on a system, which retrieves the most similar images in the database. Then feature vectors are extracted to compare the query image to another image in the database.
