This document summarizes a seminar presentation on Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR). CBIR allows users to search for digital images in large databases based on the images' visual contents like color, shape, and texture, rather than keywords. The seminar covers the inspiration for CBIR, different types of image retrieval, how CBIR works by extracting features from images, applications like crime prevention and biomedicine, advantages like efficient searching, and limitations like accuracy issues. The goal of CBIR research is to develop algorithms that can characterize and understand images like human vision.
