With the support of an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant worth $445,000 over three years, Associate Professor Lei Wang from the Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences and the Visual Information Learning and Analysis research group (Group Leader), aims to improve the accuracy of image retrieval techniques using some innovative methods.

Table 24.1.The technology, which has many applications, is far from perfect though, particularly as the volume of visual data hosted in databases rapidly increases, making the retrieval of a specific piece of information increasingly difficult.

The answers to these questions are detailed in Table 24.1. This begs the question, of course, of how small is small. It's also good if you're looking for a larger or higher-resolution picture for print purposes (both of which are likely to be of a larger file size), or a smaller or lower-resolution picture for web use (both of which are likely to be of a smaller file size). The Advanced Image Search page is great if you're looking for images of a particular file typefor example, if you're looking only for JPG images.
