This paper proposes a region based approach for image retrieval. We develop an algorithm to segment an image into fuzzy regions based on coefficients of multiscale wavelet packet transform. The wavelet based features are clustered using fuzzy C-means algorithm. The final cluster centroids which are the representative points, signify the color and texture properties of the preassigned number of classes. Fuzzy Topological relationships are computed from the final fuzzy partition matrix. The color and texture properties as indicated by centroids and spatial relations between the segmented regions are used together to provide overall characterization of an image. The closeness between two images are estimated from these properties. The performance of the system is demonstrated using different set of examples from general purpose image database to prove that, our algorithm can be used to generate meaningful descriptions about the contents of the images.
