LifeSeeker 3.0 : an interactive lifelog search engine for LSC’21

In this paper, we present the interactive lifelog retrieval engine developed for the LSC’21 comparative benchmarking challenge. The LifeSeeker 3.0 interactive lifelog retrieval engine is an enhanced version of our previous system participating in LSC’20 - LifeSeeker 2.0. The system is developed by both Dublin City University and the Ho Chi Minh City University of Science. The implementation of LifeSeeker 3.0 focuses on searching and filtering by text query using a weighted Bag-of-Words model with visual concept augmentation and three weighted vocabularies. The visual similarity search is improved using a bag of local convolutional features; while improving the previous version’s performance, enhancing query processing time, result displaying, and browsing support
