In one aspect, the method includes, in a processing system: determining a query feature set for a search image, wherein the query feature set includes texture data indicative of a texture of the search image for a plurality of resolutions of the search image; determining a dissimilarity measurement between at least one query feature of the query feature set and at least one target feature of a target image set for one or more target images, wherein the dissimilarity measurement is determined at least partially based upon the dissimilarity between the texture data of the search image and one or more target images for at least some of the plurality of resolutions of the target image; and identifying one or more target images based upon the dissimilarity measurement. | 08-18-2011 |
20110202543 | OPTIMISING CONTENT BASED IMAGE RETRIEVAL - A method, processing system and computer program product for optimising a search of a collection of images. In one aspect, the method includes iteratively performing, in a processing system, steps of comparing a test search result set for a search query to a user defined expected search result set for the search query, wherein the search query includes a query feature set of a search image, each feature being associated with a weight; and adjusting one or more weights of the query feature set according to the results of the comparison to improve the similarity between the test and expected search result sets, thereby optimising a future image search of the collection of images. | 08-18-2011 |
