Abstract
The MPEG-7 texture description tools are applied to the retrieval of the historical aerial photographs. These aerial photographs had been digitized into gray-scaled and low-resolution images to build a digital library. The aerial image retrieval over the digital library is achieved on the basis of 1) texture feature extraction methods, which are homogeneous texture, texture browsing and edge histogram in the MPEG-7 texture descriptors, and 2) their corresponding similarity measurements. The image retrieval methods are evaluated over a collection of historical aerial photographs. The paper presents the retrieval results of these texture feature extraction methods.
