With the exponential increase of image database, Content Based Image Retrieval research field has started a race to always propose more effective and efficient tools to manage massive amount of data. In this paper, we focus on improving the discriminative power of the well-known bag of visual words model. To do so, we present n-BoVW, an approach that combines visual phrase model effectiveness keeping the efficiency of visual words model with a binary based compression algorithm. Experimental results on widely used datasets (UKB, INRIA Holidays, Corel1000 and PASCAL 2012) show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
