Abstract

Current search methods for mobile-Web content can be frustrating to use. To shorten searches for cell phone wallpaper images, VISCORS combines collaborative filtering with content-based image retrieval. An increasing selection of content is becoming available in the mobile-Web environment, where users navigate the Web using wireless devices such as cell phones and PDAs. The fast growth and excellent prospects of the mobile-Web content market have attracted many content providers.
