| Abstract | With the fast-growing of online shopping services, there are millions even billions of commercial item images available on the Internet. How to effectively leverage visual searching to find out the items of uers' interests is an important yet challenging task. Besides similar global appearances (e.g., color, shape or pattern), most time users pay more attention to the local style of certain products, thus an ideal visual item search engine should support detailed precise search of similar images, which is the deficiency of current search systems and techniques. In this paper, we propose a novel system named iSearch and global/local matching of local features are combined to do precise retrieval of item images in an interactive manner. To enhance the discriminative power of local features, we encode the spatial context with grid representations and a simple but effective approach using triangle relations constraints is proposed for spatial consistency filtering. The experimental evaluations show the promising results of our approach and system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
