Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
We present an approach for image retrieval using a very large number of highly selective features and efficient learning of queries. Our approach is predicated on the assumption that each image is generated by a sparse set of visual causes and that images which are visually similar share causes. We propose a mechanism for computing a very large number of highly selective features which capture some aspects of this causal structure (in our implementation there are over 46,000 highly selective features). At query time a user selects a few example images, and the AdaBoost algorithm is used to learn a classification function which depends on a small number of the most appropriate features. This yields a highly efficient classification function. In addition we show that the AdaBoost framework provides a natural mechanism for the incorporation of relevance feedback. Finally we show results on a wide variety of image queries.
