Abstract:Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search is fundamental for fast content-based image retrieval. While vector quantization is one key to performing an effective ANN search, in order to further improve ANN search accuracy, we propose an enhanced accumulative quantization (E-AQ). Based on our former work, we introduced the idea of the quarter point into accumulative quantization (AQ). Instead of finding the nearest centroid, the quarter vector was used to quantize the vector and was computed for each vector acco… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
