Abstract

A method is provided to search for images. The method includes identifying an object in a two-dimensional reference image. The method includes determining a three-dimensional reference orientation axis of the object based on at least one attribute of the object. The method includes receiving an input that requests a change in a three-dimensional perspective of the object. The method further includes determining a new orientation axis based on the input and the reference orientation axis. The method includes executing a search query on a set of two-dimensional images, where the search query is based on the new orientation axis and at least one attribute of the object. The method also includes displaying image search results that are ranked based on correlations with the new orientation axis and the attribute of the object.
