In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method to use active contours to detect image boundaries of a first view and a second view of a human face, and mark a first set of fiducial points on the first view and a second set of fiducial points on the second view. Using the fiducial points, feature vectors may be calculated and stored in a database for later comparison with a query image.

Enabling content-based search of objects in an image database with reduced matching

In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method to obtain a query image and search a database corresponding to object images for a solution set having a maximum similarity to the query image using fuzzy logic. Also in certain embodiments, based on fuzzy logic, the database may be partitioned into multiple sets based on a fuzzy similarity analysis of a measure of the object images to various thresholds.
