Semantic Queries with Pictures: The VIMSYS Model
Summary: VIMSYS introduces a layered data model (object-oriented + functional) for images and semantic pictorial objects, enabling incremental, similarity-based queries. Focus is on image organization and access structures rather than interpretation; a knowledge module guides query refinement and supports multiple representations of image entities.
