	abstract =	{The search algorithms for the objects of interest related
	to shape similarity in a video or image library were implemented by
	various research groups. This work focuses on the search of a sample
	object (car) in video sequences and images related to the shape
	similarity. We also investigate a new description for cars, using
	relational graphs. The goal of this study is to investigate the shape
	matching method based on relational graph of objects with respect to
	its accuracy, efficiency and scalability. The aim is to annotate the
	images where the object of interest (OOI) is present. Then the query by
	text can be performed to extract images of OOI from a preprocessed
	database. The graph based description of the object with its meaningful
	parts provides an efficient way to obtain high level semantics from low
	level features. The hierarchical segmentation increases the accuracy of
	the detection of the object in the transformed and occluded images.},
