Abstract
A system, method and program product for implementing a sketch-based retrieval system. A system is disclosed that includes: an interface having a canvas for entering inputs including user generated strokes, and extracting features associated with the inputs; a hierarchy system for assigning an importance to the inputs; a matching system for retrieving matches from a database based on extracted features and importance associated with the extracted features; a feedback system that provides real-time feedback on the canvas to suggest improved inputs for the user; and a ranking system that ranks retrieved matches for output in the interface by incorporating user interaction history.
