  	abstract =	{One of the major problems in CBIR is the so-called `semantic gap':
  	the difference between low-level features, extracted from images, and the
  	high-level `information need' of the user. Reaching that goal can be regarded as
  	a quest for similar `concepts', where a concept is loosely defined as ``what
  	words (or images) stand for, signify, or mean'' [1]. We first seek to establish
  	a metaphysical basis for CBIR. We look at ontological questions, such as `what
  	is similarity?' and `what is an image?' in the context of CBIR. We will
  	investigate these questions via thought experiments. We will argue that the
  	meaning of an image---the concept it stands for---rests on at least three
  	pillars: what actually can be seen on an image (its ontology), convention and
  	imagination.},
