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
Ranking-based Deep Cross-modal Hashing
Cross-modal hashing has been receiving increasing interests for its low
storage cost and fast query speed in multi-modal data retrievals. However, most
existing hashing methods are based on hand-crafted or raw level features of
objects, which may not be optimally compatible with the coding process.
Besides, these hashing methods are mainly designed to handle simple pairwise
similarity. The complex multilevel ranking semantic structure of instances
associated with multiple labels has not been well explored yet. In this paper,
we propose a ranking-based deep cross-modal hashing approach (RDCMH). RDCMH
firstly uses the feature and label information of data to derive a
semi-supervised semantic ranking list. Next, to expand the semantic
representation power of hand-crafted features, RDCMH integrates the semantic
ranking information into deep cross-modal hashing and jointly optimizes the
compatible parameters of deep feature representations and of hashing functions.
Experiments on real multi-modal datasets show that RDCMH outperforms other
competitive baselines and achieves the state-of-the-art performance in
cross-modal retrieval applications
