RIO: Rhetorical Structure Theory Based Indexing Technique for Image Objects
Efficient and relevant retrieval of any type of the data, especially multimedia objects, is based on indexing technique. Due to complexity of multimedia data, existing indexing techniques for multimedia objects suffer from irrelevant retrieval. Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) has already been successfully implemented for indexing text documents, which has reduced irrelevancy. The focus of this research paper is to propose an indexing technique for image objects using RST. An indexing technique is proposed for image objects using image relation framework for RST. To elaborate the functionality of proposed indexing technique, a case study is presented for image objects. Further research can be carried out for indexing technique of other multimedia objects.
