AbstractWith the emergence of cloud, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) on encrypted domain gain enormous importance due to the ever increasing need for ensuring confidentiality, authentication, integrity and privacy of data. CBIR on outsourced encrypted images can be done by extracting features from unencrypted images and generating searchable encrypted index based on it. Visual descriptors like color descriptors, shape and texture descriptors, etc. are employed for similarity search. Since visual descriptors used to represent an image have crucial role in retrieving most similar results, an attempt to combine them has been made in this paper. The effect of combining different visual descriptors on retrieval precision in secure CBIR scheme proposed by Xia et al. is analyzed. Experimental results show that combining visual descriptors can significantly enhance retrieval precision of the secure CBIR scheme.
