	abstract =	{To address the emerging needs of applications that require
	access to and retrieval of multimedia objects, we are developing the
	Multimedia Analysis and Retrieval System (MARS) in our group at the
	University of Illinois [HMR96]. In this paper, we concentrate on the
	retrieval subsystem of MARS and its support for content-based queries
	over image databases. Content-based retrieval techniques have been
	extensively studied for textual documents in the area of automatic
	information retrieval [SM83,CCH92]. This paper describes how these
	techniques can be adapted for ranked retrieval over image databases.
	Specifically, we discuss the ranking and retrieval algorithms developed
	in MARS based on the Boolean retrieval model and describe the results
	of our experiments that demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed
	model for image retrieval.},
