Abstract

In this paper, we prove that specific widely used models in Content-based Image Retrieval for information fusion are interchangeable. In addition, we show that even advanced, non-standard fusion strategies can be represented in dual forms. These models are often classified as representing early or late fusion strategies. We also prove that the standard query modification method with specific similarity measurements can be represented in a late fusion form.
