Similarity of Images in the ImageCLEF 2008 Photo Retrieval Task

We provide distances for each pair of images from the database and for each sample image to each database image.

The archive provided contains a file for each image which specifies the colour-based and the texture-based distance for the image to each image in the database.

The files look like this:

# distmatrix for collection/topics/SampleImages/60/10323.jpg
# distances jsd jsd
nofdistances 20000 2
0 1.00649 1.0842
1 1.28045 0.681526
2 0.900205 0.701226
3 0.931814 0.765623
4 0.756411 0.31024
5 0.913164 4.08287

which means that the image SampleImages/60/10323.jpg has a distance of 1.00659 to the first image in the database regarding its color distribution and 1.0842 regarding texture similarity.

The order of the files in the distance files is specified here.

Distances were generated using FIRE V2.2 using colour histograms and tamura texture features.
