This paper presents an efficient image feature representation method,namely angle structure descriptor (ASD),which is built based on the angle structures of images.According to the diversity in directions,angle structures are defined in local blocks.Combining color information in HSV color space,we use angle structures to detect images.The intal correlations between neighboring pixels in angle structures are explored to form a feature vector.With angle structures as bridges,ASD extracts image features by integrating multiple information as a whole,such as color,texture,shape and spatial layout information.In addition,the proposed algorithm is efficient for image retrieval without any clustering implementation or model training.Experimental results demonstrate that ASD outperforms the other related algorithms.
