A visual descriptor is used to assess page similarity while a relevance feedback process allow refining the results iteratively. The application is tested on a large dataset of digitised historic newspapers. L1 - http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/GRK2013a.pdf N1 - DAG; 600.056; 600.045; 605.203 ID - Hongxing Gao2013 ER -
