Multi-image input and sequenced output based image search

Abstract:

A search query processing system that generates an ordered set of images that includes a search result. A location of a given image in the set of ordered images is based on a context of the search result and a pathway of physical progression of a subject. The search query processing system returns a set of search results based on a theme and a search result rule that relates to at least one of the following: (i) a manner in which the ordered set of search results are organized, or (ii) a scope of search results to be returned.
