Data mining has attracted a great deal of attention in information industry in recent years is due to the wide availability of huge amounts of data and the imminent need for turning such data into useful information and knowledge. Image mining is simply an expansion of data mining in the field of image processing. Image mining handles with the hidden knowledge extraction, image data association and additional patterns which are not clearly accumulated in the images. Retrieval of required-query-similar images from accessible digital images is done by proposed improved histogram method. This method gave better precision value of the retrieved resultant images with 32% improvement. It is designed and implemented on MATLAB and is tested with the images of various databases.

Keywords: Image mining, data mining, histogram technique, image matching and image retrieval
