Abstract

See full text

Functionality is described for generating a vocabulary from a source dataset of image items or other non-textual items. The vocabulary serves as a tool for retrieving items from a target dataset in response to queries. The vocabulary has at least one characteristic that allows it to be used to retrieve items from multiple different target datasets. A target dataset can have a different size than the source dataset and/or a different type than the source dataset. The enabling characteristic may correspond to a size of the source dataset above a prescribed minimum number of items and/or a size of the vocabulary above a prescribed minimum number of words.
