Scene classification is one of the most controversial fields in computer vision. It has many applications such as robot navigation and control, content-based image retrieval (CBIR), semantic organization of image databases, depth estimation and multimedia services. In fact the outcome of any classification system depends on the ability of the feature vector defined for the problem, by means of its distinguishing strength. In this research we focus on efficient feature extraction methods. In recent years, methods based on bags of features and special pyramid approach, have shown good performance in scene classification comparison to the others. So we based our proposed method on these ideas....
