Abstract
Various embodiments of systems and methods allow a system to identify subsets of items by mixing and matching identified features in one or more other items. A system can identify features of items in an item database. The system can then calculate 'fingerprints' of these features which are vectors describing the characteristics of the features. The system can present a collection of items and a user can select an item of the collection. The user can then select positive features to include in a search and/or negative features to include in the search. The system can then do a search of the database for items that contain features similar to those positive features and do not contain features similar to those negative features. The user can select features through a variety of means.
