The proposed model consists of two subsystems: a Content-Based Information Retrieval subsystem that performs the image retrieval and a textual Information Retrieval subsystem that performs the textual retrieval. The images and text are independently retrieved and then the partial resulting lists are mixed. A study of different weighting schemes has been accomplished and analyzed. The results obtained show that the proper integration of textual information improves conventional multi-modal systems.
