Process for electronically marketing goods or services on networks of the internet type
First Claim
1. A process for presenting information in a multimedia file from a query implemented by a user on an open computer network comprising a multiplicity of computer terminals enabling transmission of graphical data displayed in multimedia files, said process comprising:
- a) selecting at least one image comprising an object to be retrieved;
b) adaptively analyzing a global image to isolate a zone of interest comprising a graphical element which is an object of a query and calculating a set of visual signatures for each object;
c) comparing visual signatures of extracted objects and images contained in the multimedia files to find similar objects stored in said multimedia files; and
d) constructing a file comprising a set of responses resulting from the comparison.

Abstract
A process for presenting information in a multimedia file from a query implemented by a user on an open computer network including a multiplicity of computer terminals enabling transmission of graphical data displayed in multimedia files, the process including selecting at least one image comprising an object to be retrieved, adaptively analyzing a global image to isolate a zone of interest comprising a graphical element which is an object of a query and calculating a set of visual signatures for each object, comparing visual signatures of extracted objects and images contained in the multimedia files to find similar objects stored in the multimedia files, and constructing a file including a set of responses resulting from the comparison.

17. Process for presentation of information in a multimedia file from a query implemented by a user on an open computer network comprising a multiplicity of computer terminals enabling transmission of graphical data displayed in multimedia files, said process comprising a step of selecting at least one image comprising an object to be retrieved, a query processing step, a database interrogation step based on this query, a step of constructing a file comprising the set of responses associated with this query, characterized in that
the processing step consists of an adaptive analysis of the global image in order to isolate a zone of interest comprising a graphical element which is the object of a query and of calculating a set of visual signatures for each object, the database interrogation step comprises a step of comparing the visual signatures of the extracted objects and the images contained in the database in order to find the similar objects stored in said database.
