Basic Image Clustering by Color
Rickyfox
New Altair Community Member
Hello everyone,
I'm pretty new to Rapidminer and Data Mining in general and wanted to try to cluster a collection of color images by color. After some time experimenting with rapidminer I managed to create a somewhat correct looking process, but I still get unidentified errors.
Below is the xml of my process.Note that this process is atm just clustering by general image features, not color in particular. Basically what I tried is loading images from multiple sources using the MCIO operator. As a subprocess of this, I use local feature extraction with POIs generated from an integral image source.
The resulting exampleset is then used for clustering by SVM.
Where did I go wrong with this process? Would you mind pointing out my mistakes and propose a possible solution?

Hello Rickyfox,
if you want to cluster images by color, it is maybe better to use global image features.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

Best,

Thanks for your answer Vaclav,
when running my process I get a promt basically saying 'no obvious error encountered but something went wrong' . To have a better look at it I activated debug mode and got a 3744 error that shows that a Array Out of Bounds exception happened.
I'll use global features as suggested and come back here with my progres

With most of the images in my collection being a fruit/vegetable in the center with white background (>70% of the screen in most cases) the background might be a problem for color clustering because on a testset of data I only get one cluster with all images in it.
Taking a closer look at the attributes of different images in this one cluster, I can see that the attribute distribution is pretty dense which explains why there is only one cluster.
Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this? Is it possible to automatically crop the images viewed by the process to the center of the image?0 -
Hello Rickyfox,
maybe you can use segmentation, select segments which are not background, merge them and then use Crop Image By Mask Operator.

Vaclav0 -
How should I tackle that? If I use 'image_k_means' to segment the image it should use basic image features like color values etc in as attributes to segment by - is that a valid approach?StaryVena wrote:

Also, what do I do with the segments I recieve? Would you mind elaborating what you mean by 'select segments which are not background' ?

Hello Rickyfox,
you can use this process:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
Unfortunately it works only for gray scale images. But you can use the Evaluation version from http://www.burgsys.com/mumi-image-mining.php#tabs-1. It is free for non commercial use.

Thx I used another operator to crop the image to the center of my images, but thanks for the process.StaryVena wrote:

Also, I downloaded the evaluation version which is a really great addition. My problem atm is, that I need an exampleset for the clustering process<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
Here I use the feature extraction operators in the evaluation version which use the 'ima' input. I was forced to use 'read image set' because the rest of the data import operators for images do not return the necessary formats
