Learning Discriminative Hashing Codes for Cross-Modal Retrieval based on Multiorder Statistical Features
Hashing techniques have been applied broadly in large-scale retrieval tasks due to their low storage requirements and high speed of processing. Many hashing methods have shown promising performance but as they fail to exploit all structural information in learning the hashing function, they leave a scope for improvement. The paper proposes a novel discrete hashing learning framework which jointly performs classifier learning and subspace learning for cross-modal retrieval. Concretely, the framework proposed in the paper includes two stages, namely a kernelization process and a quantization process. The aim of kernelization is to learn a common subspace where heterogeneous data can be fused. The quantization process is designed to learn discriminative unified hashing codes. Extensive experiments on three publicly available datasets clearly indicate the superiority of our method compared with the state-of-the-art methods.
