Abstract
We describe a general-purpose pictorial retrieval system based on approximate matching. This system accommodates pictorial databases for a broad class of applications. It consists of tools for handling the following aspects--- user interfaces, reasoning about spatial relationships, computing degrees of similarity between queries and pictures. In this paper, we briefly describe the model that is used for representing pictures/queries, the user interface, the system for reasoning about spatial relationships, and the methods employed for computation of similarities of pictures with respect to queries.
