We describe the object retrieval task of ImageCLEF 2007, give an overview of the methods of the participating groups, and present and discuss the results. The task was based on the widely used PASCAL object recognition data to train object recognition methods and on the IAPR TC-12 benchmark dataset from which images of objects of the ten different classes bicycles, buses, cars, motorbikes, cats, cows, dogs, horses, sheep, and persons had to be retrieved. Seven international groups participated using a wide variety of methods. The results of the evaluation show that the task was very challenging and that different methods …

Ntu: Solution For The Object Retrieval Task Of The Imageclef2007, Steven C. H. Hoi

Object retrieval is an interdisciplinary research problem between object recognition and content-based image retrieval (CBIR). It is commonly expected that object retrieval can be solved more effectively with the joint maximization of CBIR and object recognition techniques. We study a typical CBIR solution with application to the object retrieval tasks [26,27]. We expect that the empirical study in this work will serve as a baseline for future research when using CBIR techniques for object recognition.
