Abstract: The techniques for content-based large-scale image retrieval tasks are discussed, and the methods of index-tree structures are analyzed emphatically. Introducing the concept of a vocabulary tree, an improved algorithm for large-scale image retrieval was realized. The vocabulary tree is a data structure based on visual words for indexing images. Each leaf node of the tree is from visual word computed by the K-means clustering algorithm. The query time of system dose not increase linearly as the database size grows. The method can improve the retrieval efficiency and meet two of the major requirements: adaptability and scalability.
