Proceedings ArticleDOI
Hierarchical semantic indexing for large scale image retrieval
TL;DR: This paper addresses the problem of similar image retrieval, especially in the setting of large-scale datasets with millions to billions of images, and proposes an approach that can exploit prior knowledge of a semantic hierarchy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient Classification for Additive Kernel SVMs
TL;DR: It is shown that a class of nonlinear kernel SVMs admits approximate classifiers with runtime and memory complexity that is independent of the number of support vectors, which includes widely used kernels for histogram-based image comparison like intersection and chi-squared kernels.
Proceedings Article
Fast and Balanced: Efficient Label Tree Learning for Large Scale Object Recognition
TL;DR: A novel approach to efficiently learn a label tree for large scale classification with many classes with less training time and more balanced trees compared to the previous state of the art by Bengio et al.

Transformation-Grounded Image Generation Network for Novel 3D View Synthesis
TL;DR: This work presents a transformation-grounded image generation network for novel 3D view synthesis from a single image that first explicitly infers the parts of the geometry visible both in the input and novel views and then casts the remaining synthesis problem as image completion.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Hedging your bets: Optimizing accuracy-specificity trade-offs in large scale visual recognition
TL;DR: This work proposes the Dual Accuracy Reward Trade-off Search (DARTS) algorithm and proves that, under practical conditions, it converges to an optimal solution.
