Area of Science:

  • Art History
  • Computer Science
  • Information Retrieval

Background:

  • Current content-based retrieval systems have limited usefulness for complex concepts.
  • The Query-by-Example paradigm is insufficient for nuanced artistic concept retrieval.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel concept-based retrieval engine for artworks.
  • To enhance the retrieval of color artistry concepts in visual media.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a generative grammar of elemental concepts for color artistry.
  • Indexed artworks using these elemental concepts.
  • Utilized the generative grammar for post-coordinate expression of concept queries.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated a concept-based approach for artwork retrieval.
