Abstract(in English) We propose an affective image retrieval system based on yes-no questions. Traditional image retrieval system requests users to input queries. However, it is not easy for users to create queries which are expressing their intent fully. Our suggested system creates interactive yes-no questions using affective words and facilitates users to find their intended images. We conducted user study with 117,866 images. Eight persons participated in our experiment. The experimental results showed that our method gives more satisfactory results to users.
