ABSTRACT:Research in the field of information retrieval especially on image processing is proliferating. Various methods are developed to be able to detect images optimally and produce better accuracy. The process of image detection can use the dataset that exists around us. In this research, we use butterflies dataset, since the butterfly has unique colors, patterns, and diverse shapes. Therefore, we use local binary pattern method for texture feature extraction and region props for shape feature extraction. The results of each texture feature extraction and shape feature extraction will be a merging process. The results of the merging process get an accuracy of 66%. In addition, the system testing process with confusion matrix will produce 67.1% precision value, 66% recall and f-measure of 66.5%. The merging process of both methods shows the interplay of texture and shape extraction.
