Objective: An essential aspect of computer vision is content-based image retrieval (CBIR), which enables users to search for images based on their visual content instead of created annotations. Advances in technology have resulted in a significant rise in the complexity of multimedia content and the emergence of new research fields centered on similar multimedia material retrieval. The efficacy of retrieval is impacted by the limits of the present CBIR systems, which result from overlooked algorithms and computing restrictions. Methods: This research introduces a novel approach employing the Siamese Edge Attention Layered Convonet (SEAL Convonet) for Image Retrieval. We utilize the CBIR image dataset through Gaussian smoothing to enhance image quality for data preprocessing and the Canny Edge Detector (CED) for edge detection, following pre-processing. The Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) is used for feature extraction to extract complex textures and patterns from the images. Findings: This approach is implemented and tested through simulations as well as the results indicate a substantial positive deviation in the performance and retrieval of the images compared to existing methods. The performance metrics are accuracy (97 %), precision (94 %), recall (91 %), F1-Score (97 %), False Positive Rate (FNR) (0.0013), Matthew's correlation coefficient (MCC) (0.85), and False Negative Rate (FPR) (0.0036) show the measurements of this proposed model. Application: The state of the art in this work is researching the influence of optimizers on the accuracy process, as indicated by the findings.
