An Image Indexing and Region based on Color and Texture

From the previous decade, the enormous rise of the internet has tremendously maximized the amount image databases obtainable. This image gathering such as art works, satellite and medicine is fascinating ever more customers in numerous application domains. The work on image retrieval primarily focuses on efficient and effective relevant images from huge and varied image gatherings which is further becoming more fascinating and exciting. In this paper, the author suggested an effective approach for approximating large-scale retrieval of images through indexing. This approach primarily depends on the visual content of the image segment where the segments are obtained through fuzzy segmentation and are demonstrated through high-frequency sub-band wavelets. Furthermore, owing to the complexity in monitoring large scale information and exponential growth of the processing time, approximate nearest neighbor algorithm is employed to enhance the retrieval speed. Thus, a locality-sensitive hashing using (K-NN Algorithm) is adopted for region-aided indexing technique. Particularly, as the performance of K-NN Approach hinges essentially on the hash function segregating the space, a novel function was uncovered motivated using E8 lattice which could efficiently be amalgamated with multiple probes K-NN Approach and query-adaptive K- NN Approach. To validate the adopted hypothetical selections and to enlighten the efficiency of the suggested approach, a group of experimental results associated to the region-based image retrieval is carried out on the COREL data samples

Scalable and Sustainable Deep Learning via Randomized Hashing

Current deep learning architectures are growing larger in order to learn from complex datasets. These architectures require giant matrix multiplication operations to train millions of parameters. Conversely, there is another growing trend to bring deep learning to low-power, embedded devices. The matrix operations, associated with both training and testing of deep networks, are very expensive from a computational and energy standpoint. We present a novel hashing based technique to drastically reduce the amount of computation needed to train and test deep networks. Our approach combines recent ideas from adaptive dropouts and randomized hashing for maximum inner product search to select the nodes with the highest activation efficiently. Our new algorithm for deep learning reduces the overall computational cost of forward and back-propagation by operating on significantly fewer (sparse) nodes. As a consequence, our algorithm uses only 5% of the total multiplications, while keeping on average within 1% of the accuracy of the original model. A unique property of the proposed hashing based back-propagation is that the updates are always sparse. Due to the sparse gradient updates, our algorithm is ideally suited for asynchronous and parallel training leading to near linear speedup with increasing number of cores. We demonstrate the scalability and sustainability (energy efficiency) of our proposed algorithm via rigorous experimental evaluations on several real datasets
