Region-DH: Region-based Deep Hashing for Multi-Instance Aware Image Retrieval
This paper introduces an instance-aware hashing approach Region-DH for large-scale multi-label image retrieval. The accurate object bounds can significantly increase the hashing performance of instance features. We design a unified deep neural network that simultaneously localizes and recognizes objects while learning the hash functions for binary codes. Region-DH focuses on recognizing objects and building compact binary codes that represent more foreground patterns. Region-DH can flexibly be used with existing deep neural networks or more complex object detectors for image hashing. Extensive experiments are performed on benchmark datasets and show the efficacy and robustness of the proposed Region-DH model
Hashing as Tie-Aware Learning to Rank
Hashing, or learning binary embeddings of data, is frequently used in nearest
neighbor retrieval. In this paper, we develop learning to rank formulations for
hashing, aimed at directly optimizing ranking-based evaluation metrics such as
Average Precision (AP) and Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (NDCG). We
first observe that the integer-valued Hamming distance often leads to tied
rankings, and propose to use tie-aware versions of AP and NDCG to evaluate
hashing for retrieval. Then, to optimize tie-aware ranking metrics, we derive
their continuous relaxations, and perform gradient-based optimization with deep
neural networks. Our results establish the new state-of-the-art for image
retrieval by Hamming ranking in common benchmarks.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures. IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern
