Visual Instance Retrieval with Deep Convolutional Networks

20 Dec 2014  ·  Ali Sharif Razavian, Josephine Sullivan, Stefan Carlsson, Atsuto Maki ·

This paper provides an extensive study on the availability of image representations based on convolutional networks (ConvNets) for the task of visual instance retrieval. Besides the choice of convolutional layers, we present an efficient pipeline exploiting multi-scale schemes to extract local features, in particular, by taking geometric invariance into explicit account, i.e. positions, scales and spatial consistency. In our experiments using five standard image retrieval datasets, we demonstrate that generic ConvNet image representations can outperform other state-of-the-art methods if they are extracted appropriately.
