摘要

Nowadays we are experiencing a remarkable growth in the number of databases that have become accessible over the Web. However, in a certain number of cases, for example, in the case of BioImage, this information is not of a textual nature, thus posing new challenges in the design of tools to handle these data. In this work, we concentrate on the development of new mechanisms aimed at "querying" these databases of complex data sets by their intrinsic content, rather than by their textual annotations only. We concentrate our efforts on a subset of BioImage containing 3D images (volumes) of biological macromolecules, implementing a first prototype of a "query-by-content" system. In the context of databases of complex data types the term query-by-content makes reference to those data modeling techniques in which user-defined functions aim at "understanding" (to some extent) the informational content of the data sets. In these systems the matching criteria introduced by the user are related to intrinsic features concerning the 3D images themselves, hence, complementing traditional queries by textual key words only. Efficient computational algorithms are required in order to "extract" structural information of the 3D images prior to storing them in the database. Also, easy-to-use interfaces should be implemented in order to obtain feedback from the expert. Our query-by-content prototype is used to construct a concrete query, making use of basic structural features, which are then evaluated over a set of three-dimensional images of biological macromolecules. This experimental implementation can be accessed via the Web at the BioImage server in Madrid, at http://www.bioimage.org/qbc/index.html. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.
