ABSTRACT:
A method and system that allows a user to find images using a query by example is disclosed. Images similar to the selected image are retrieved based on color or shape. Each clip in a clip catalog is assigned a color metric and a wavelet, i.e., shape, metric. The selected clip is also assigned a color metric and a wavelet metric. Those clips that are most similar based on either the wavelet metric or the color metric are returned to the user.
