Abstract
In a method for image management, image data for an image containing objects is accessed. Graphical representations of the objects are generated and the centroids and the sizes of the graphical representations are determined. The locations of the centroids are determined and the morphologies of the graphical representations based upon the locations of the centroids are determined. Human readable lexical representations of the locations of the centroids, the sizes, the colors and morphologies of the graphical representations are assigned and are stored in a database, which is searchable through human readable lexicon.
