Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) aims at retrieving the most similar images in a collection by taking into account image visual properties. In this scenario, accurately ranking collection images is of great relevance. Aiming at improving the effectiveness of CBIR systems,
re-ranking
and
rank aggregation
algorithms have been proposed. However, different re-ranking and rank aggregation approaches produce different image rankings. These rankings are complementary and, therefore, can be further combined aiming at obtaining more effective results. This paper presents novel approaches for combining re-ranking and rank aggregation methods aiming at improving the effectiveness of CBIR systems. Several experiments were conducted involving shape, color, and texture descriptors. Experimental results demonstrate that our approaches can improve the effectiveness of CBIR systems.
