Abstract

See full text

Retrieving and/or storing images associated with events is described. For example, streams of event data comprising text are analyzed to detect an event and a language component builds an event language model for the event, comprising a plurality of words. In various examples, images extracted from web or other sources have associated text. In examples, images with associated text that is similar to the event language model are identified as images of the event. In various examples, associations between images and events are used to update an image retrieval system and/or an image storage system. In various examples, query terms about an event are received at an image retrieval system which returns images related to the event on the basis of associations between image text and event language models.
