How to Search Images Online –Search Engine Journal Image search is evolving rapidly. Today the machine understands much more about images than just a year ago: it can read the text on the image, see its colors and classify it based on its form, shape and textures. So which advanced image search methods can we use today? Image search based on image content (face / landscape / photo / product image search) Face search has been a hot topic recently. Exalead has become known for integrating facial recognition technology but it still lacks some accuracy. Image search based on color Picitup allows to set color preferences (choose among 18 colors to set the search dominating palette);PicSearch and Snap.com recognize between colorful and black-and-white images.Etsy searches only inside its own product database but its color-based search engine is both fun and pleasure to play with. Image search based on similarity Recently launched Tineye.com (registration required) searches for similar images online.

Lire | SemanticMetadata.net An Open Source Java Content Based Image Retrieval Library The LIRE (Lucene Image REtrieval) library provides a simple way to retrieve images and photos based on their color and texture characteristics. LIRE creates a Lucene index of image features for content based image retrieval (CBIR). Several different low level features are available, such as MPEG-7 ScalableColor, ColorLayout, and EdgeHistogram, Auto Color Correlogram, PHOG, CEDD, JCD, FCTH, and many more. Furthermore simple and extended methods for searching the index and result browsing are provided by LIRE. LIRE scales well up to millions of images with hash based approximate indexing. Documentation and help are available Please drop me a line on the mailing list if you use LIRE in your project.
