Reconstruction-based supervised hashing

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a reconstruction-based supervised hashing (RSH) method to learn compact binary codes with holistic structure preservation for large scale image search. Unlike most existing hashing methods which consider pair-wise similarity, our method exploits the structural information of samples by employing a reconstruction-based criterion. Moreover, the label information of samples is also utilized to enhance the discriminative power of the teamed hash codes. Specifically, our method minimizes the distance between each point and the selected generated-structure with the same class label and maximizes the distance between each point and the selected generated-structure with different class labels. Experimental results on two widely used image datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
