Previous researhes on the lassifiation using the deision tree have mostly been intended to lassify text data. This paper was intended to introdue a lassifiation appliation to the ontent-based image retrieval (CBIR) with multiattributes by using a deision tree. The attributes used were the visual features of the image, i.e. : olor moments (order, and 3), image entropy, energy and homogeneity. K-means luster algorithm was used to ategorize eah attribute. The result of ategorized data was then built into a deision tree by using C4.5. To show the onept in appliation, this researh built an appliation with main features, i.e.: ases data input, ases list, training proess and testing proess to do lassifiation. The resulting tests of 50 rontgen data showed the training data lassifiation s truth value of 75.33% and testing data lassifiation of 55.7%.

Introdution Image database has been ommonly used by many appliation domains nowadays suh as multimedia searh engines, digital libraries, medial databases, geographial databases, e-ommere, online tutoring systems and riminal investigations. Image database ould be visualized using image browsing as a way to retrieval systems []. Image retrieval an be performed using attributes attahed to the image suh as reation date, storage loation, size or other predefined attributes. However, the searh performane produed in this way is highly depended on the expertise of a user in desribing the image. In addition, the searh ould not be performed based on the semantis of the image itself []. Tehnology is evolving towards image searhing by using method alled ontent-based image retrieval (CBIR) and also known as query by image ontent (QBIC) [3]. Instead of taking image s information from external resoures or metadata, CBIR approah used the intrinsi features of the image suh as olor, shape, texture, or a ombination of these feature elements [4]. Color as an image feature has been suesfully applied in image retrieval appliation sine it has strong orrelation with the objets inside the image [5]. Furthermore, the olor feature s robustness has been proven in proessing saled and orientation-hanged images [6-0]. The image itself is lassified into three images i.e. intensity image, indexed image, and binary image []. To be more speifi, CBIR s retrieval tehnique is based on information extrated from pixels [, 3]. CBIR has been widely applied in many researh projets. One of appliation of CBIR is for reognizing porn image [4-5]. CBIR is also used in health area researhes. It is used as image administration system that supports the physiian task suh as diagnosis, telemediine, teahing and learning new medial knowledge [6-8]. This paper introdues the onstrution of CBIR by using a ase based reasoning onept. In previous researh, ase-based reasoning has been explained as a onept to build rule for linial servie, speifially in diagnosis problem domain [9]. One algorithm that an be used to build rules as a deision tree is C4.5. It ould be also aplied to lassify image [0-]. The novelty of this researh is the ombining used of the lustering method and deision tree developing in image lassifiation. Instead of predetermining the disrete data Reeived August 8, 06; Revised Otober, 06; Aepted Otober 6, 06

Researh Method.. Arhiteture System The arhiteture system of CBIR in this paper was formulated as shown in Figure. All of image douments were preproessed in order to make all images have the same format and size. After the preproessing step have finished, some visual features were then extrated from the images and stored into image databases. In the next step, using the k-means lustering method [3], eah of the features was then ategorized and stored into ategorized image database. These data were then used to build the deision tree using the C4.5 algorithm. Figure. CBIR Arhiteture.. Image Feature Extration Images were preonditioned into some same states, before the proess of feature extration was started, namely size of 40x40 pixel, bmp format, and turned into 8 bit grey image olor mode. The features used in this experiment are quite similar to previous study, that are olor moment and texture. The olor moment was divided into 3 low-order moments while the texture features used were ontrast, orrelation, energy, homogeneity, and entropy [4], but in this paper used entropy, energy, ontrast, and homogeneity [5]. Entropy, energy, ontrast, and homogeneity features represent image texture. Texture an be defined as a region s harateristi that is wide enough to form pattern repetition. In another definition, texture is defined as a speifially ordered pattern onsisting of pixel strutures in the image. One parameter needed to alulate the value of entropy, energy, ontrast, and homogeneity is obtained from o-ourene matrix, that is a matrix that desribes the frequeny with whih a pair of two pixels with a ertain intensity within a ertain distane and diretion ours in the image. Co-ourrene intensity matrix p (i, i) is defined by the following two simple steps:. Calulate the distane of every two dots in the image, expressed in a vetor of vertial and horizontal diretions (d = (dx, dy)). The values of dx and dy are also in pixel.

Put the alulation of eah pair intensity values into the matrix aording to the oordinates, whih the absissa for intensity value i and the ordinate for intensity value i. Entropy is an image feature used for measuring the disorder of intensity distribution. The entropy alulation is shown in Equation. Entropy i, ) i p( i, ) log ( i p i i () Energy is a feature for measuring the number of onentration of intensity pairs in oourrene matrix. Equation is used to alulate this feature s value. The value will be inreased if qualified pixel pairs that mathed the o-ourrene intensity matrix requirement are more onentrated at some oordinates of the matrix and will be dereased if they are more dispersed. Energy i p i (i, i ) () The ontrast feature is used to measure the strength of different intensity of the image, while homogeneity is used to measure homogeneity of image intensity variation. Image s homogeneity value will be inreased as its variation intensity is dereased. The formula to measure the image ontrast is shown in Equation 3 while that for measuring the homogeneity is shown in Equation 4. Contrast i (i i ) i p(i, i ) (3) p(i Homogeneity, i ) i i i i (4) The notation of p in Equation, 3 and 4 denotes the probability and has value in the range of 0 to, that is the element value in o-ourrene matrix. Meanwhile i and i are denoted as nearby intensity pair in the x and y diretion. Given a sample of -bit image data with a size of 3 x 3 pixels. Finding the mean of RGB values of eah pixel, the result is represented in a matrix as shown in Figure. Figure. Image s RGB mean matrix Feature alulations of entropy, energy, ontrast and homogeneity is based on the oourrene intensity matrix. Consequently, prior to searhing those features values, oourrene intensity matrix is needed to be built. In this system, the value of distane (d)= and diretion in angle 45 o (dx= and dy=) are predetermined. From the above setting, then the value of o-ourrene intensity matrix value from image matrix Figure is obtained as shown in Figure 3. The seond value in row dx = and olumn dy = is obtained from pair ount with distane and angle 45 o between intensity value of image and intensity value of image as illustrated on Figure 4.

C4.5 Algorithm Deision tree is one of methods in lassifiation proess. In deision tree, lassifiation proess involving lassifiation rules generated from a set of training data. The deision tree will split the training data based on some riteria given. The riteria are divided into target riteria and determinator riteria. The lassifiation proess produes the target riteria values based on determinator riteria values [7]. The algorithm of deision tree building will searh for the best deiding riterion for ategorizing data homogenously. The riterion will be onsidered as root node.

7 486 ISSN: the algorithm is reating branhes based on the values inside of the riterion. The training data then ategorized based on values at the branh. If the data onsidered homogen after the previous step, then the proess for this branh is immediately stopped. Otherwise, the proess will be repeated by hoosing another riterion as next root node until all the data in the branh are homogen or there is no remain deiding riterion an be used. The resulting tree will then be used in lassifiation of new data. The proess of lassifiation is onduted by mathing the riterion value of the new data with the node and branh in deision tree until finding the leaf node whih is also the target riterion. The value at that leaf node is being the onlusion of lassifiion result. Using C4.5 algorithm, hoosing whih attribute to be used as a root is based on highest gain of eah attribute, the gain is ounted using Equation 3 and 4 [8]. n S i Gain( S, A) Entropy( S) * Entropy( Si) (3) i S Entropy( S) n pi * log pi i (4) Where S : Case set A : Attribute n : Partition Count of attribute A Si : Count of ases in i th partition S : Count of ases in S : Proportion of ases in S that belong to the i th partition p i 3.
