Abstract
A method for receiving an input user query from a user in any of multiple languages and creating an input user query vector for the input user query is provided. The input user query vector has a length equal to a pre-selected length determined by a dimension of a multimodal space. The method includes associating an image vector to the input user query vector in the multimodal space, the image vector having the pre-selected length, identifying, from an image database, an image associated with the image vector, and providing the image for display to the user in a results panel of a user interface. A system configured to perform the above method is also provided.
