Zusammenfassung: | Hashing, a widely-studied solution to the approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search, aims to map data points in the high-dimensional Euclidean space to the low-dimensional Hamming space while preserving the similarity between original points. As directly learning binary codes can be NP-hard due to discrete constraints, a two-stage scheme, namely "projection and quantization", has already become a standard paradigm for learning similarity-preserving hash codes. However, most existing hashing methods typically separate these two stages and thus fail to investigate complementary effects of both stages. In this paper, we systematically study the relationship between "projection and quantization", and propose a novel minimal reconstruction bias hashing (MRH) method to learn compact binary codes, in which the projection learning and quantization optimizing are jointly performed. By introducing a lower bound analysis, we design an effective ternary search algorithm to solve the corresponding optimization problem. Furthermore, we conduct some insightful discussions on the proposed MRH approach, including the theoretical proof, and computational complexity. Distinct from previous works, MRH can adaptively adjust the projection dimensionality to balance the information loss between projection and quantization. The proposed framework not only provides a unique perspective to view traditional hashing methods but also evokes some other researches, e.g., guiding the design of the loss functions in deep networks. Extensive experiment results have shown that the proposed MRH significantly outperforms a variety of state-of-the-art methods over eight widely used benchmarks |
