Method and system for image searching

A method of real-time reverse image searching for one or more images analogous to a representative frame having one or more patterns, the method comprising steps of:

• providing a computing device connected to the network, the computing device:
• capturing, in real time, one or more images;
• and
• identifying at least one of the captured one or more images as the representative frame for use as input in the reverse search;
• providing a processor connected to a network and having access to at least one digital library warehousing a plurality of vectors and respective images and videos associated with each of the plurality of vectors, the processor:
• calculating one or more mathematical representations for each of the one or more patterns in the representative frame to form a representative vector, the one or more mathematical representations corresponding to dimensions of the vector;
• reducing a size of the vector by reducing a number of the dimensions to one of about 8% and a maximum trade-off between the quality of the image and the size of vector;
• detecting, in the at least one digital library, one or more of the plurality of vectors that are most similar to the vector of the representative frame;
• and
• offering, in real-time via the network, images and videos associated with the selected one or more of the plurality of vectors, wherein a number of the offered images and videos is pre-determined.
