This paper proposes an image retrieval method which retrieves images of a specific person from group photos. Many query-by-example methods have focused only on the visual features of the queried person. However, since socially related people such as family and friends are often taken photos together, their co-occurrence relations can be useful information. Thus, we propose an image retrieval method which uses the visual features of not only the queried person but also those who co-occur with the queried person in the same images. Relevance feedback is used to learn who co-occur with the queried person, their faces, and how strong their co-occurrence relations are. When retrieving the images of 19 persons in total from 158 images, after five feedback iterations, the recall rate of 50% was obtained by considering the people co-occurrence relations, as against 33% when considering only the queried person. With human errors in giving relevance feedback, the recall rate still improved to 40%.
