Content-Based Image Retrieval is a well studied problem in computer vision, with retrieval problems generally divided into two groups: category-level retrieval and instance-level retrieval. Given a query image of the Sydney Harbour bridge, for instance, category-level retrieval aims to find any bridge in a given dataset of images, whilst instance-level retrieval must find the Sydney Harbour bridge to be considered a match.

Despite significant progress of applying deep learning methods to the field of content-based image retrieval, there has not been a software library that covers these methods in a unified manner.
In this paper, we propose a new system to discriminatively embed the image and text to a shared visual-textual space.

This paper functions as a tutorial for individuals interested to enter the field of information retrieval but wouldn't know where to begin from.
Where previous reviews on content-based image retrieval emphasize on what can be seen in an image to bridge the semantic gap, this survey considers what people tag about an image.
In this paper, a novel manifold ranking algorithm is proposed based on the hypergraphs for unsupervised multimedia retrieval tasks.
The analysis of natural disasters such as floods in a timely manner often suffers from limited data due to a coarse distribution of sensors or sensor failures.
An adversarial query is an image that has been modified to disrupt content-based image retrieval (CBIR) while appearing nearly untouched to the human eye.
Query images presented to content-based image retrieval systems often have various different interpretations, making it difficult to identify the search objective pursued by the user.
We propose Information-Theoretic Active Learning (ITAL), a novel batch-mode active learning method for binary classification, and apply it for acquiring meaningful user feedback in the context of content-based image retrieval.
