Abstract: Every of us will have a large set of stored images such as scanned copies, multimedia files. Image retrieval is a process of finding similar images to that of query image or to find out to which database the query image belongs. Here we are using two linear transformation techniques Gabor-Walsh Wavelet pyramid technique and Curvelet transform 7method Feature vectors of each of the database images are extracted by applying these techniques, then by calculating Euclidian distance we find that to which database the query image belongs. The comparative analysis is done based on the FAR, FRR & TSR parameters.
