Feature Weighting for Improving Document Image Retrieval System Performance
This is an incremental improvement for document image retrieval systems using keyword spotting.
The paper tackled improving document image retrieval by applying feature weighting based on coefficient of multiple correlations, resulting in an average precision of 93.23% and recall of 98.66%.
Feature weighting is a technique used to approximate the optimal degree of influence of individual features. This paper presents a feature weighting method for Document Image Retrieval System (DIRS) based on keyword spotting. In this method, we weight the feature using coefficient of multiple correlations. Coefficient of multiple correlations can be used to describe the synthesized effects and correlation of each feature. The aim of this paper is to show that feature weighting increases the performance of DIRS. After applying the feature weighting method to DIRS the average precision is 93.23% and average recall become 98.66% respectively
