Abstract
Images stored in an information repository are prepared for browsing. For each image in the repository, text in the repository is mined to extract snippets of text about the image which are semantically relevant to the image, and for each of these snippets of text, keyterms are detected in the snippet of text which represent either concepts that are related to the image or entities that are related to the image, and the snippet of text and keyterms are associated with the image. Each keyterm that is associated with each image in the repository is hyperlinked to each other image in the repository that has this keyterm associated therewith. A graphical user interface allows a user to browse the images in the repository by using their associated snippets of text and hyperlinked keyterms.
