Image and Video Retrieval

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Image and Video Retrieval, CIVR 2002, held in London, UK, in July 2002.The 30 revised full papers presented together with an introduction by the volume editors were carefully reviewed and selected from 82 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on image retrieval, modeling, feature-based retrieval, semantics and learning, video retrieval, and evaluation and benchmarking.
