Abstract
En 中文
Deep features extracted from the convolutional layers of pre-trained CNNs have been widely used in the image retrieval task. These features, however, are in a large number and probably cannot be directly used for similarity evaluation due to lack of efficiency. Thus, it is of great importance to study how to aggregate deep features into a global yet distinctive image vector. This paper first introduces a simple but effective method to select informative features based on semantic content of feature maps. Then, we propose an effective channel weighting method (CW) for selected features by analyzing relations between the discriminative activation and distribution parameters of feature maps, including standard variance, non-zero responses and sum value. Furthermore, we provide a solution to pick semantic detectors that are independent on gallery images. Based on the aforementioned three strategies, we derive a global image vector generation method, and demonstrate its state-of-the-art performance on benchmark datasets.
