Picollator is an Internet search engine that performs searches for web sites and multimedia by visual query (image) or text, or a combination of visual query and text. Picollator recognizes objects in the image, obtains their relevance to the text and vice versa, and searches in accordance with all information provided.

Description

Picollator identifies human faces in the images and creates a database of people's faces. This allows the user to search for other images of the submitted person, lookalikes and/or similar images in images found on websites. Picollator can be used in any language.

Features

Most image search engines match user textual query and picture tags. Picollator is based on a different approach. Patterns and objects found in the image are stored in its database, therefore it is able to recognise the contents of the image and compare it to other images to find similarities.


To search for multimedia information, the user may submit

  • Sample image to find images with relevant people
  • Image to find web resources
  • Text to find images
  • Text to find web resources
  • Text and Image to find images and/or web resources.
