Abstract
Methods for identifying visual portions of visual media files that are responsive to at least one visual media input file submitted as a search query are provided. In one aspect, a method includes generating an index of visual portions of a plurality of visual media files from a collection of media files, and receiving from a user a search query, for the collection, including at least one visual media input file. The method also includes analyzing the index to identify at least one responsive visual media file from the collection that includes a visual portion associated with a visual similarity score, to the at least one visual media input file, which exceeds a similarity threshold value, and providing, in response to the search query, an identifier of the at least one responsive visual media file for display as responsive to the search query.
