Beyond bags of features: Spatial pyramid matching for recognizing natural scene categories

by Cordelia Schmid - In CVPR
"... This paper presents a method for recognizing scene categories based on approximate global geometric correspondence. This technique works by partitioning the image into increasingly fine sub-regions and computing histograms of local features found inside each sub-region. The resulting “spatial pyrami ..."

A pyramid nearest neighbor search kernel for object categorization

by Hong Cheng, Rongchao Yu, Zicheng Liu, Yiguang Liu - in IEEE ICPR , 2012
"... Nearest-Neighbor based Image Classification (N-NIC) has drawn considerable attention in the past sev-eral years because it does not require classifier training. Similar to an orderless Bag-of-Feature image represen-tation, the traditional NNIC ignores global geometric correspondence. In this paper, ..."

Spatial Weighting for Bag-of-Features

by Marcin Marszałek, Cordelia Schmid
"... This paper presents an extension to category classification with bag-of-features, which represents an image as an orderless distribution of features. We propose a method to exploit spatial relations between features by utilizing object boundaries provided during supervised training. We boost the wei ..."

Sampling strategies for bag-of-features image classification

by Eric Nowak, Frédéric Jurie, Bill Triggs - In Proc. ECCV , 2006
"... Abstract. Bag-of-features representations have recently become popular for content based image classification owing to their simplicity and good performance. They evolved from texton methods in texture analysis. The basic idea is to treat images as loose collections of independent patches, sampling ..."

Packing bag-of-features

by Hervé Jégou, Matthijs Douze, Cordelia Schmid - in ICCV , 2009
"... One of the main limitations of image search based on bag-of-features is the memory usage per image. Only a few million images can be handled on a single machine in reasonable response time. In this paper, we first evaluate how the memory usage is reduced by using lossless index compression. We then ..."

then propose an approximate representation of bag-of-features obtained by projecting the corresponding histogram onto a set of pre-defined sparse projection functions, producing several image descriptors. Coupled with a proper indexing structure, an image is represented by a few hundred bytes. A distance

Applications of locally orderless images

by Bram Van Ginneken, Bart M. Ter Haar Romeny - Scale-Space Theories in Computer Vision , 1999
"... In a recent work, J. J. Koenderink and A. J. Van Doorn considered a family of three intertwined scale-spaces coined the locally orderless image (LOI) (1999, J. Comput. Vision, 31 (2/3), 159–168). The LOI represents the image, observed at inner scale σ, as a local histogram with bin-width β, at each ..."
