Abstract :
The need to retrieve visual information from large image and video collections is shared by many application domains. This paper describes the main features of our image search engine Quicklook. Quicklook allows the user to query image and video databases with the aid of example images or a user-made sketch, and progressively refine the system´s response by indicating the relevance, or nonrelevance of the retrieved items
