- Abstract:
-
For image retrieval, traditional retrieval methods based on artificial features are not effective enough. Hence, we propose an image retrieval method, which combines a convolutional neural network and previous state-of-the-art hash coding strategies. In view of the great progress that convolutional neural networks have made in a large number of computer vision tasks in recent years, this method first uses the model "VGGNet-D" pre-trained on the ILSVRC’s dataset to extract the convolutional features from experimental image datasets to get the deep representations of images, then adopts previous state-of-the-art hash coding strategies to encode the deep representations to obtain the binary codes, and, finally, performs a quick image retrieval. The experimental results on the commonly used Caltech101 and Caltech256 datasets show that this method’s five strategies, compared with the previous state-of-the-art image retrieval strategies, can obtain better, indeed excellent, performance in both the "Precision-Recall" and "mean Average Precision-Number of bits" metrics, proving the effectiveness of the proposed method in image retrieval.
