A method of image classification by using multidimensional scaling

Abstract:

In this paper, a method for image classification based on multidimensional scaling (MDS) is presented. Once the image has been fragmented into smaller cells and the wavelet decomposition has also been performed, up to a certain level, statistics are obtained from the new cells with the aim of constructing vectors of characteristics of the original image. Then, these vectors are grouped in a matrix and the MDS of said matrix is performed. Finally, the principal coordinates of the MDS indicate the proximity between vectors and, therefore, between images.
