Abstract

A new image query system by impression words named the IQI system has been proposed. The proposed IQI system has been implemented on a Sun SS-5 workstation. Since human sensitivity and various images are flexibly connected using a neural network in the IQI system, it can automatically estimate impression words from various kinds of images. As a result, the IQI system can reflect a human's kansei (impression and sensitivity) effectively and treat a wider variety of images. We show some experimental results. The IQI system can estimate correct impression words and successfully retrieve correct images
