abstract = {Image Retrieval (IR) is one of the most exciting and
fastest-growing research areas in the field of multimedia technology.
We present here a highlight of recent research for IR. Some trends and
probable future research directions are presented. We expose the major
problems that we have recognized: the lack of a good measurement of
visual similarity, the little importance accorded to user interaction
and feedback, and the neglect of spatial information. Answering these
concerns, we describe the solutions implemented by recent IR systems.
We also present the current image retrieval projects in our laboratory,
which are motivated to a large extent by these same considerations.},
