Fast Supervised Hashing with Decision Trees for High-Dimensional Data
Supervised hashing aims to map the original features to compact binary codes
that are able to preserve label based similarity in the Hamming space.
Non-linear hash functions have demonstrated the advantage over linear ones due
to their powerful generalization capability. In the literature, kernel
functions are typically used to achieve non-linearity in hashing, which achieve
encouraging retrieval performance at the price of slow evaluation and training
time. Here we propose to use boosted decision trees for achieving non-linearity
in hashing, which are fast to train and evaluate, hence more suitable for
hashing with high dimensional data. In our approach, we first propose
sub-modular formulations for the hashing binary code inference problem and an
efficient GraphCut based block search method for solving large-scale inference.
Then we learn hash functions by training boosted decision trees to fit the
binary codes. Experiments demonstrate that our proposed method significantly
outperforms most state-of-the-art methods in retrieval precision and training
time. Especially for high-dimensional data, our method is orders of magnitude
faster than many methods in terms of training time.Comment: Appearing in Proc. IEEE Conf. Computer Vision and Pattern
