Abstract

In this article, we present a new graphical navigation environment for image databases. Unlike "query by example" which focuses on similarities between images, the method we propose shows up visual differences occurring along paths offered to the user. Images are arranged to show an evolution along a direction, e.g. an axis that crosses the parameter space. This gives a global view of the database and allows the user to run all over the database in an organized way, and to focus on narrow areas by displaying sets of images.
