Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006008350A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for improving the relevance of images presented to a user during a search phase for images in an indexing motor. Said method comprises an evaluation step carried out by a user of the method or device, for evaluating the relevance or non-relevance of the images, followed by a step for associating a relevance value with each of the relevant (or non-relevant) declared images, said value creating an influence region (or influence field) around the image in question. All of the fields are then cumulated. The images finally presented to the user are those with the highest relevance values.
