	abstract =	{Efficient management of digital multimedia databases
	requires storage, searching, browsing, and retrieving large amounts of
	visual information effectively. This paper proposes a hierarchical
	representation scheme and a heirarchical content matching technique
	that provide a learning mechanism for effective and efficient retrieval
	from user profiles and search patterns. The proposed representation
	also, together with a low level image analysis procedure, enables
	automatic analysis of images into meaningful objects for object based
	content description. Experimental results are presented to show the
	effectiveness of the proposed representation scheme, the hierarchical
	matching technique and the learning concept.},
