How to retrieve the desired images quickly and accurately from the large scale image database has become a hot topic in the field of multimedia research. Many content-based image retrieval (CBIR) technologies already exist, but they are not always satisfactory. In many applications, the CBIR model based on machine learning relies heavily on the distance metric between samples. Although the traditional distance metric methods are simple and convenient, it is not always appropriate for CBIR tasks. In this paper, a novel distance metric learning (DML) method based on cost sensitive learning (CSL)...
