Evaluating bag-of-visual-words representations in scene classification
Based on keypoints extracted as salient image patches, an image can be described as a “bag of visual words” and this representation has been used in scene classification. The choice of dimension, selection, and weighting of visual words in this representation is crucial to the classification perform...

NGO, Chong-wah Based on keypoints extracted as salient image patches, an image can be described as a “bag of visual words” and this representation has been used in scene classification. The choice of dimension, selection, and weighting of visual words in this representation is crucial to the classification performance but has not been thoroughly studied in previous work. Given the analogy between this representation and the bag-of-words representation of text documents, we apply techniques used in text categorization, including term weighting, stop word removal, feature selection, to generate image representations that differ in the dimension, selection, and weighting of visual words. The impact of these representation choices to scene classification is studied through extensive experiments on the TRECVID and PASCAL collection. This study provides an empirical basis for designing visual-word representations that are likely to produce superior classification performance. 2007-09-01T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/sis_research/6478 info:doi/10.1145/1290082.1290111 https://ink.library.smu.edu.sg/context/sis_research/article/7481/viewcontent/1290082.1290111.pdf http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems eng Institutional Knowledge at Singapore Management University Bag-of-visual-words Keypoint Local interest point Scene classification Data Storage Systems Graphics and Human Computer Interfaces |
