Day by day, rapidly increasing the number of images on digital platforms and digital image databases has increased. Generally, the user requires image retrieval and it is a challenging task to search effectively from the enormous database. Mainly content-based image retrieval (CBIR) algorithm considered the visual image feature such as color, texture, shape, etc. The non-visual features also play a significant role in image retrieval, mainly in the security concern and selection of image features is an essential issue in CBIR. Performance is one of the challenging tasks in image retrieval, according to current CBIR studies. To overcome this gap, the new method used for CBIR using histogram of gradient (HOG), dominant color descriptor (DCD) & hue moment (HM) features. This work uses color features and shapes texture in-depth for CBIR. HOG is used to extract texture features. DCD on RGB and HSV are used to improve efficiency and computation. A neural network (NN) is used to extract the image features, which improves the computation using the Corel dataset. The experimental results evaluated on various standard benchmarks Corel-1k, Corel-5k datasets, and outcomes of the proposed work illustrate that the proposed CBIR is efficient for other state-of-the-art image retrieval methods. Intensive analysis of the proposed work proved that the proposed work has better precision, recall, accuracy
