Abstract
Various approaches discussed herein enable browsing groups of visually similar items to an item of interest, wherein the item of interest may be identified in a query image, for example. One ore more visual attributes associated with the item of interest are identified, and the visually similar items matching at least one of the visual attributes are grouped together, wherein the group is ranked according to the visually similar items' overall visual similarity to the item of interest, for example by using a visual similarity score and/or metric.
