Deep CNN Based Hybrid Model for Image Retrieval

Abstract

The popularity of deep features based image retrieval and classification task has grown a lot in the recent years. Feature representation based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) found to be very effective in terms of accuracy by various researchers in the field of visual content based image retrieval. The features which are neutral to their domain knowledge with automatic learning capability from their images are in demand in various image applications. For improving accuracy and expressive power, pre-trained CNN models with the use of transfer learning can be utilized by training them on huge volume of datasets. In this paper, a hybrid model for image retrieval is being proposed by using pre-trained values of hyper parameters as input learning parameters. The performance of the model is being compared with existing pre-trained models showing higher performance on precision and recall parameters
