Interactive tree-based refinement of search results.
Like Akinator: asks discriminative questions to narrow down

Algorithm:
1. Start with all candidate results
2. Extract attributes from each candidate (from detections + captions)
3. Compute information gain for each attribute
4. Split on the attribute with highest information gain
5. Ask the user which branch to follow
6. Repeat until results are small enough or user is satisfied
