Concerning the problem of semantic gap between low-level visual features and high-level semantics in automatic image annotation, based on traditional dictionary learning, a multi-label discriminative dictionary learning method was proposed to automatic image annotation. First of all, multiple types of features for each image were extracted, and a combination of a variety of features was used as input information of the input feature space to the dictionary learning. Then, a label consistency regularization term was designed to integrate the label information of the original samples into the initial input feature data, and the dictionary of label consistency and the label consistency regularization term were combined to learn the dictionary. Finally, the label sparse coding vector was obtained by the dictionary and sparse coding matrix to implement the semantic annotation for an unknown image. The performance of the annotation was tested on the Corel 5K data set. The average precision and average recall could reach 35% and 48% respectively, compared with the traditional Sparse Coding Method (MSC), which were increased by 10 percentage points and 16 percentage points respectively, and increased by 3 percentage points and 14 percentage points respectively than the method of Distance Constraint Sparse/Group Sparse Coding (DCSC/DCGSC) for automatic image lableing. Compared with the current image annotation methods, the experimental results show the proposed method can predict the semantic information for an unknown image properly, and has better annotation performance.
