TLDR
This paper addresses the problem of learning similarity-preserving binary codes for efficient similarity search in large-scale image collections by proposing a simple and efficient alternating minimization algorithm, dubbed iterative quantization (ITQ), and demonstrating an application of ITQ to learning binary attributes or "classemes" on the ImageNet data set.Abstract:
This paper addresses the problem of learning similarity-preserving binary codes for efficient similarity search in large-scale image collections. We formulate this problem in terms of finding a rotation of zero-centered data so as to minimize the quantization error of mapping this data to the vertices of a zero-centered binary hypercube, and propose a simple and efficient alternating minimization algorithm to accomplish this task. This algorithm, dubbed iterative quantization (ITQ), has connections to multiclass spectral clustering and to the orthogonal Procrustes problem, and it can be used both with unsupervised data embeddings such as PCA and supervised embeddings such as canonical correlation analysis (CCA). The resulting binary codes significantly outperform several other state-of-the-art methods. We also show that further performance improvements can result from transforming the data with a nonlinear kernel mapping prior to PCA or CCA. Finally, we demonstrate an application of ITQ to learning binary attributes or "classemes" on the ImageNet data set.read more

Modeling the Shape of the Scene: A Holistic Representation of the Spatial Envelope
Aude Oliva,Antonio Torralba +1 more
TL;DR: The performance of the spatial envelope model shows that specific information about object shape or identity is not a requirement for scene categorization and that modeling a holistic representation of the scene informs about its probable semantic category.
