Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
Cycle-Consistent Deep Generative Hashing for Cross-Modal Retrieval
In this paper, we propose a novel deep generative approach to cross-modal
retrieval to learn hash functions in the absence of paired training samples
through the cycle consistency loss. Our proposed approach employs adversarial
training scheme to lean a couple of hash functions enabling translation between
modalities while assuming the underlying semantic relationship. To induce the
hash codes with semantics to the input-output pair, cycle consistency loss is
further proposed upon the adversarial training to strengthen the correlations
between inputs and corresponding outputs. Our approach is generative to learn
hash functions such that the learned hash codes can maximally correlate each
input-output correspondence, meanwhile can also regenerate the inputs so as to
minimize the information loss. The learning to hash embedding is thus performed
to jointly optimize the parameters of the hash functions across modalities as
well as the associated generative models. Extensive experiments on a variety of
large-scale cross-modal data sets demonstrate that our proposed method achieves
better retrieval results than the state-of-the-arts.Comment: To appeared on IEEE Trans. Image Processing. arXiv admin note: text
