System and method for searching based on input multimedia content elements

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for causing a processing circuitry to execute a process, the process comprising:

• obtaining at least one signature for each of at least one input multimedia content element, each signature representing a concept, wherein each concept is a collection of signatures and metadata representing the concept;
• determining, based on the obtained signatures, at least one context of the at least one input multimedia content element;
• generating, based on the determined at least one context, at least one query;
• and
• searching in at least one data source using the generated at least one query.

A system for recommending tags for a multimedia content element to be tagged, comprising:

• a processing circuitry;
• and
• a memory connected to the processing circuitry, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the system to:
• obtain at least one signature for each of at least one input multimedia content element, each signature representing a concept, wherein each concept is a collection of signatures and metadata representing the concept;
• determine, based on the obtained signatures, at least one context of the at least one input multimedia content element;
• generate, based on the determined at least one context, at least one query;
• and
• search in at least one data source using the generated at least one query.
