Image Retrieval based on Bag-of-Words model
This article gives a survey for bag-of-words (BoW) or bag-of-features model
in image retrieval system. In recent years, large-scale image retrieval shows
significant potential in both industry applications and research problems. As
local descriptors like SIFT demonstrate great discriminative power in solving
vision problems like object recognition, image classification and annotation,
more and more state-of-the-art large scale image retrieval systems are trying
to rely on them. A common way to achieve this is first quantizing local
descriptors into visual words, and then applying scalable textual indexing and
retrieval schemes. We call this model as bag-of-words or bag-of-features model.
The goal of this survey is to give an overview of this model and introduce
different strategies when building the system based on this model
Salient Local 3D Features for 3D Shape Retrieval
In this paper we describe a new formulation for the 3D salient local features
based on the voxel grid inspired by the Scale Invariant Feature Transform
(SIFT). We use it to identify the salient keypoints (invariant points) on a 3D
voxelized model and calculate invariant 3D local feature descriptors at these
keypoints. We then use the bag of words approach on the 3D local features to
represent the 3D models for shape retrieval. The advantages of the method are
that it can be applied to rigid as well as to articulated and deformable 3D
models. Finally, this approach is applied for 3D Shape Retrieval on the McGill
articulated shape benchmark and then the retrieval results are presented and
compared to other methods.Comment: Three-Dimensional Imaging, Interaction, and Measurement. Edited by

Place recognition: An Overview of Vision Perspective
Place recognition is one of the most fundamental topics in computer vision
and robotics communities, where the task is to accurately and efficiently
recognize the location of a given query image. Despite years of wisdom
accumulated in this field, place recognition still remains an open problem due
to the various ways in which the appearance of real-world places may differ.
This paper presents an overview of the place recognition literature. Since
condition invariant and viewpoint invariant features are essential factors to
long-term robust visual place recognition system, We start with traditional
image description methodology developed in the past, which exploit techniques
from image retrieval field. Recently, the rapid advances of related fields such
as object detection and image classification have inspired a new technique to
improve visual place recognition system, i.e., convolutional neural networks
(CNNs). Thus we then introduce recent progress of visual place recognition
system based on CNNs to automatically learn better image representations for
places. Eventually, we close with discussions and future work of place
recognition.Comment: Applied Sciences (2018
