Abstract
This paper describes the main features of the multimedia information retrieval engine of Quicklook2. Quicklook2 allows the user to query image and multimedia databases with the aid of sample images, or a user-made sketch and/or textual descriptions, and progressively refine the system’s response by indicating the relevance, or nonrelevance of the retrieved items. The performance of the system is illustrated with examples from various application domains.
