dc.description.abstractIndexing image data for content-based image search is an important area in Computer Vision. The state of the art uses the 128-dimensional SIFT as low level descriptors. Indexing even a moderate collection involves several millions of such vectors. The search performance depends on the quality of indexing and there is often a need to interactively tune the process for better accuracy. In this paper, we propose a a visualization-based tool to tune the indexing process for images and videos. We use a feature selection approach to improve the clustering of SIFT vectors. Users can visualize the quality of clusters and interactively control the importance of individual or groups of feature dimensions easily. The results of the process can be visualized quickly and the process can be repeated. The user can use a filter or a wrapper model in our tool.We use input sampling, GPU-based processing, and visual tools to analyze correlations to provide interactivity. We present results of tuning the indexing for a few standard datasets. A few tuning iterations result in an improvement of over 4% in the final classification performance, which is significant.en_US
