I have read the news on this blog. You can test a search with Google Images and you’ll see that the Search Engine knows how to categorize pictures.
That’s a new visual concept for the biggest Search Engine. Now, Google enables to classify images according to their type (faces, news, other).
For example, I would like to do a research about “w3c”.
Normal research : http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=w3c
As you can see, there are some kinds of pictures, such as people, maps, logos, diagrams…
Face research : http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=w3c&imgtype=face
This is amazing ! Google is able to recognize only with a visual concept that pictures are faces ! It is possible thanks to Neven Vision, whose speciality is image object recognition.
News research : http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=w3c&imgtype=news
Here are pictures which are related to news on the web.
If you desire to try with your own keywords, a simple tool is available on Google Blogoscoped.
