In this paper, we draw an analogy between image retrieval and text retrieval and propose a
visual phrase-based approach to retrieve images containing desired objects. The visual
phrase is defined as a pair of adjacent local image patches and is constructed using data
mining. We devise methods on how to construct visual phrases from images and how to
encode the visual phrase for indexing and retrieval. Our experiments demonstrate that visual
phrase-based retrieval approach can be very efficient and can be 20% more effective than …
