In general, techniques are described for performing a visual search in a network. A client device comprising an interface, a feature extraction unit and a feature compression unit may implement various aspects of the techniques. The feature extraction unit extracts feature descriptors from an image. The feature compression unit quantizes the image feature descriptors at a first quantization level. The interface that transmits the first query data to the visual search device via the network. The feature compression unit determines second query data that augments the first query data such that when the first query data is updated with the second query data the updated first query data is representative of the image feature descriptors quantized at a second quantization level. The interface transmits the second query data to the visual search device via the network to successively refine the first query data. |
