ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for retrieving a video picture includes a decoder section for decoding a coded bit stream of video picture data representing an arbitrary shape object and including shape information and texture information, a retrieval condition input section for inputting a retrieval condition for retrieval of a desired picture, a retrieval section for retrieving a picture meeting the retrieval condition by using shape information of the object decoded by the decoder section, and a display section for outputting the retrieved result obtained by the retrieval section.
