Dipalee N. Gaikwad, Sandeep U. Kadam . Survey on Methodologies Used for Web Image Search. International Journal of Computer Applications. 107, 18 ( December 2014), 33-36. DOI=10.5120/18853-0416
The image search has becomes an important feature of multimedia. It plays an important role in daily life. Some image search query results are satisfactory and some are unsatisfactory.

In this paper the methods developed by different researchers in the area of web image search are reviewed. These methods vary from textual information search to user feedback. Also some methods are depend on the visual similarities between the images. To improve the result of web image search, strategies like keyword expansion, active re-ranking is also used.
