Abstract

With the rapid development of the internet, mobiles, and social image-sharing websites, a large number of images are generated daily.  The huge repository of the images poses challenges for an image retrieval system. On image-sharing social websites such as Flickr, the users can assign keywords/tags to the images which can describe the content of the images. These tags play important role in an image retrieval system. However, the user-assigned tags are highly personalized which brings many challenges for retrieval of the images.  Thus, it is necessary to suggest appropriate tags to the images.


Existing methods for tag recommendation based on nearest neighbors ignore the relationship between tags. In this paper, the method is proposed for tag recommendations for the images based on semantic neighbors using modified association rule. Given an image, the method identifies the semantic neighbors using random forest based on the weight assigned to each category. The tags associated with the semantic neighbors are used as candidate tags. The candidate tags are expanded by mining tags using modified association rules where each semantic neighbor is considered a transaction. In modified association rules, the probability of each tag is calculated using TF-IDF and confidence value.


The experimentation is done on Flickr, NUS-WIDE, and Corel-5k datasets. The result obtained using the proposed method gives better performance as compared to the existing tag recommendation methods.
