Exalead, a search engine that’s popular among librarians and information professionals thanks to its array of advanced search capabilities, has added an image search function for more than 1 billion images on the web. Included in the image search tool is the ability to drill down on human faces, thanks to integration of LTU Technologies’ leading facial recognition software.
This Face filter enables you to narrow your search results to images containing faces (permitting you to more easily find close ups of your favorite stars like Brad Pitt orMonica Bellucci).
The “Content > Face” filter joins the other handy filters on the unique “Narrow Your Search” panel:
- Size: Find the right size image for your presentation.
- Wallpapers: Discover background images just right for your monitor’s resolution.
- Image Color, Layout, File Type: Filter the results of your search by useful criteria such as black & white vs. color, landscape or portrait layout, or file types like JPEG, GIF or PNG.
- Related Terms, Search within Results: Refocus your search using an automatically generated list of related keywords (“Related Terms”) or narrow your results by adding additional keywords of your own choosing (“Search within Results”).
