Abstract
Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for annotating of an image are disclosed. These include scoring the image using a plurality of trained classifiers, wherein each of the trained classifiers corresponds to at least one of a plurality of image groups clustered based upon image similarity, and wherein each image group is associated with a set of weighted labels; selecting one or more of the image groups based upon the scoring; aggregating one or more sets of weighted labels associated with the selected one or more image groups; and annotating the image using the aggregated one or more sets of weighted labels.

25. A computer implemented method comprising:
-
receiving a query image; scoring the query image using a plurality of trained classifiers, wherein each of the trained classifiers corresponds to at least one of a plurality of image groups of images clustered based upon image similarity, and wherein each of the image groups is associated with a set of weighted labels and wherein at least two of the image groups have a common label with a different weight; selecting one or more of the image groups based upon the scoring; annotating the query image using the weighted labels of the selected one or more image groups; and returning the images in the selected one or more image groups.
