“A picture is worth a thousand words”: Reverse image lookup and digital library assessment
本文探讨了基于内容的图像检索和反向图像查找作为数字图书馆图像复用评估工具的应用，结合文献综述和四个案例研究，提出反向图像查找对数字图书馆管理者评估馆藏有益。
This brief communication builds on the application of content‐based image retrieval (CBIR) and reverse image lookup (RIL), a graduated form of CBIR, as assessment tools for digital library image reuse. It combines literature on the definition, history, usefulness, and limitations of RIL and includes a brief analysis of the 4 published digital library image reuse assessment case studies. In its conclusion, the communication paper proposes that RIL offers benefits for digital library managers in the assessment of their collections.
