The invention relates to the technical field of
image matching retrieval, and discloses a multi-scale similar
image matching retrieval method, which comprises the following steps of: preprocessing an image to be retrieved; performing multi-scale
feature extraction on the preprocessed to-be-retrieved image to obtain a multi-scale
feature vector of the to-be-retrieved image; performing similarity measurement on the multi-scale
feature vector of the to-be-retrieved image and the multi-scale
feature vector of the matched image; and taking the matched image with the highest similarity as a
retrieval result of the to-be-retrieved image. According to the method, the pixel value which is larger in information amount and smaller in difference with other pixel values is selected as the center pixel value, spatial filtering and pixel filtering
processing is carried out on the to-be-retrieved image, edge information of the image is reserved,
random noise is removed, the accuracy of
image matching retrieval is improved, and the retrieval efficiency is improved. And extracting feature information of the preprocessed image under a light dark scale and a plurality of direction scales, forming a multi-scale feature vector, and carrying out matching retrieval to realize image search matching
processing under multi-scale features.
