Abstract
A query image is obtained. In a database including a plurality of reference image graphs, at least one of the reference image graphs, with feature vectors similar to the query image, is identified. Image querying is carried out by graph traversal on the at least one of the reference image graphs with the feature vectors similar to the query image. An image from the at least one of the reference image graphs having a highest matching score in the graph traversal is returned as a response to the query image. techniques for building the database are also disclosed.
