Abstract
A computing device having adaptable image search and methods for operating an image recognition program on the computing device are disclosed herein. An image recognition program may receive a query from a user and a target image within which a search based on the query is to be performed using one or more of a plurality of locally stored image recognition models, which are determined to be able to perform the search with sufficiently high confidence. The query may comprise text that is typed or converted from speech. The image recognition program performs the search within the target image for a target region of the target image using at least one selected image recognition model stored locally, and returns a search result to the user.
