<p>A method, system and computer program product for efficiently identifying images, videos, audio files or documents relevant to a user. Using either manual annotations or learned functions, the method predicts the relative strength of an attribute in an image, video, audio file or document from a pool of images, videos, audio files or documents. At query time, the system presents an initial set of reference images, videos, audio files or documents, and the user selects among them to provide relative attribute feedback. Using the resulting constraints in the multi¬ dimensional attribute space, the relevance function for the pool of images, videos, audio files or documents is updated and the relevance of the pool of images, videos, audio files or documents is re-computed. This procedure iterates using the accumulated constraints until the top-ranked images, videos, audio files or documents are acceptably close to the user's envisioned image, video, audio file or document.</p> |
