Summary form only given. All image search engines provide mechanisms to search based on keywords and provide the ability to do content-based searching using querying by pictorial example. In this paper, first we present some results from current image databases. Then we present a new approach to exploring image databases. Most of our current results are drawn from image and video asset management systems designed at Virage. The new approach is based on a navigational paradigm being developed at the University of California, San Diego.
