Zusammenfassung:To overcome the barrier of storage and computation when dealing with gigantic-scale data sets, compact hashing has been studied extensively to approximate the nearest neighbor search. Despite the recent advances, critical design issues remain open in how to select the right features, hashing algorithms, and/or parameter settings. In this paper, we address these by posing an optimal hash bit selection problem, in which an optimal subset of hash bits are selected from a pool of candidate bits generated by different features, algorithms, or parameters. Inspired by the optimization criteria used in existing hashing algorithms, we adopt the bit reliability and their complementarity as the selection criteria that can be carefully tailored for hashing performance in different tasks. Then, the bit selection solution is discovered by finding the best tradeoff between search accuracy and time using a modified dynamic programming method. To further reduce the computational complexity, we employ the pairwise relationship among hash bits to approximate the high-order independence property, and formulate it as an efficient quadratic programming method that is theoretically equivalent to the normalized dominant set problem in a vertex- and edge-weighted graph. Extensive large-scale experiments have been conducted under several important application scenarios of hash techniques, where our bit selection framework can achieve superior performance over both the naive selection methods and the state-of-the-art hashing algorithms, with significant accuracy gains ranging from 10% to 50%, relatively
