Image retrieval is the process of searching a large collection of images to find those that are most similar to a given query image. Image retrieval systems have traditionally used features extracted from the images, such as content labels, tags, and image descriptors, to compare images and rank them by similarity. However, vector similarity search is gaining more popularity due to a number of benefits over traditional keyword-based search and is becoming a vital component in popular content search services.

1. Vectorize Images and Text: the Image Retrieval APIs, **VectorizeImage** and **VectorizeText**, can be used to extract feature vectors out of an image or text respectively. The APIs return a single feature vector representing the entire input.

- Measure similarity: Vector search systems typically use distance metrics, such as cosine distance or Euclidean distance, to compare vectors and rank them by similarity. The [Vision studio](https://portal.vision.cognitive.azure.com/) demo uses [cosine distance](./how-to/image-retrieval.md#calculate-vector-similarity) to measure similarity.

- Retrieve Images: Use the top _N_ vectors similar to the search query and retrieve images corresponding to those vectors from your photo library to provide as the final result.
