Large Scale Visual Recommendations From Street Fashion Images
We describe a completely automated large scale visual recommendation system
for fashion. Our focus is to efficiently harness the availability of large
quantities of online fashion images and their rich meta-data. Specifically, we
propose four data driven models in the form of Complementary Nearest Neighbor
Consensus, Gaussian Mixture Models, Texture Agnostic Retrieval and Markov Chain
LDA for solving this problem. We analyze relative merits and pitfalls of these
algorithms through extensive experimentation on a large-scale data set and
baseline them against existing ideas from color science. We also illustrate key
fashion insights learned through these experiments and show how they can be
employed to design better recommendation systems. Finally, we also outline a
large-scale annotated data set of fashion images (Fashion-136K) that can be
exploited for future vision research
