However, the CBIR Portal indicates, there are still many unanswered questions: "such as whether CBIR techniques can bring about worthwhile improvements in performance with real-life image retrieval systems, and where such techniques can most profitably be used." Designed as an online resource on content-based image retrieval, resources on the CBIR site "will provide links to current research and development activities, algorithms and techniques, research groups and projects, faq's, mailing lists, newsgroups, software and application demos as well as related research papers, books, journals, and conferences."
