Deep Supervised Discrete Hashing

Neural Information Processing Systems

With the rapid growth of image and video data on the web, hashing has been extensively studied for image or video search in recent years. Benefiting from recent advances in deep learning, deep hashing methods have achieved promising results for image retrieval. However, there are some limitations of previous deep hashing methods (e.g., the semantic information is not fully exploited). In this paper, we develop a deep supervised discrete hashing algorithm based on the assumption that the learned binary codes should be ideal for classification. Both the pairwise label information and the classification information are used to learn the hash codes within one stream framework. We constrain the outputs of the last layer to be binary codes directly, which is rarely investigated in deep hashing algorithm. Because of the discrete nature of hash codes, an alternating minimization method is used to optimize the objective function. Experimental results have shown that our method outperforms current state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets.


#Exploration: A Study of Count-Based Exploration for Deep Reinforcement Learning

Neural Information Processing Systems

Count-based exploration algorithms are known to perform near-optimally when used in conjunction with tabular reinforcement learning (RL) methods for solving small discrete Markov decision processes (MDPs). It is generally thought that count-based methods cannot be applied in high-dimensional state spaces, since most states will only occur once. Recent deep RL exploration strategies are able to deal with high-dimensional continuous state spaces through complex heuristics, often relying on optimism in the face of uncertainty or intrinsic motivation. In this work, we describe a surprising finding: a simple generalization of the classic count-based approach can reach near state-of-the-art performance on various high-dimensional and/or continuous deep RL benchmarks. States are mapped to hash codes, which allows to count their occurrences with a hash table.



IDEA: An Invariant Perspective for Efficient Domain Adaptive Image Retrieval

Neural Information Processing Systems

More importantly, we employ a generative model for synthetic samples to simulate the intervention of various non-causal effects, thereby minimizing their impact on hash codes for domain invariance. Comprehensive experiments conducted on benchmark datasets confirm the superior performance of our proposed IDEA compared to a variety of competitive baselines.

Neural Information Processing Systems

Asthefigureshows,any true positives or false positives are assigned with ranksi. From the above demonstration, if any swap happens in a rank list between true and false positives,the mis-rank ofthat true positiveisdefinitely changed and will only result inincrease or decreaseofmandiby1. To determine whether the lower bound is tight is a little bit difficult. We firstly introduce some concepts and assumptions to make it easier. Let us start at the example placed in beginning of AppendixA.




One Loss for All: Deep Hashing with a Single Cosine Similarity based Learning Objective

Neural Information Processing Systems

A deep hashing model typically has two main learning objectives: to make the learned binary hash codes discriminative and to minimize a quantization error. With further constraints such as bit balance and code orthogonality, it is not uncommon for existing models to employ a large number (>4) of losses.
