Abstract

A method for identifying synonymous expressions includes determining synonymous expression candidates for a target expression. A plurality of target images related to the target expression and a plurality of candidate images related to each of the synonymous expression candidates are identified. Features extracted from the plurality of target images are compared with features extracted from the plurality of candidate images using a processor to identify a synonymous expression of the target expression.
