Evaluation of Hashing Methods Performance on Binary Feature Descriptors
In this paper we evaluate performance of data-dependent hashing methods on
binary data. The goal is to find a hashing method that can effectively produce
lower dimensional binary representation of 512-bit FREAK descriptors. A
representative sample of recent unsupervised, semi-supervised and supervised
hashing methods was experimentally evaluated on large datasets of labelled
binary FREAK feature descriptors
Streaming Binary Sketching based on Subspace Tracking and Diagonal Uniformization
In this paper, we address the problem of learning compact
similarity-preserving embeddings for massive high-dimensional streams of data
in order to perform efficient similarity search. We present a new online method
for computing binary compressed representations -sketches- of high-dimensional
real feature vectors. Given an expected code length and high-dimensional
input data points, our algorithm provides a -bits binary code for preserving
the distance between the points from the original high-dimensional space. Our
algorithm does not require neither the storage of the whole dataset nor a
chunk, thus it is fully adaptable to the streaming setting. It also provides
low time complexity and convergence guarantees. We demonstrate the quality of
our binary sketches through experiments on real data for the nearest neighbors
search task in the online setting
Hashing for Similarity Search: A Survey
Similarity search (nearest neighbor search) is a problem of pursuing the data
items whose distances to a query item are the smallest from a large database.
Various methods have been developed to address this problem, and recently a lot
of efforts have been devoted to approximate search. In this paper, we present a
survey on one of the main solutions, hashing, which has been widely studied
since the pioneering work locality sensitive hashing. We divide the hashing
algorithms two main categories: locality sensitive hashing, which designs hash
functions without exploring the data distribution and learning to hash, which
learns hash functions according the data distribution, and review them from
various aspects, including hash function design and distance measure and search
scheme in the hash coding space
