Abstract:

Near-duplicate image detection has become important and widely used in the era of big data. This category of task can be very challenging for deep learning methods due to a number of reasons. Firstly, because most of the data available is noisy and can be hard to clean, costing a vast amount of time and effort to generate a big dataset to feed the deep neural network. Moreover, it is crucial to select a well-suited architecture and optimized training that handles the input data well and outputs rightful solution. In this project, I developed an end to end deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to address the problem of recognizing the near-duplicate images in a set by producing a spatial representation for each image. The work is implemented based on a similar procedure in the state-of-the-art literature by Gordo [1]. The network is coded in CAFFE framework using a Siamese architecture of ResNet-101. The results are promising, demonstrated by a constant decrease in the loss value of the ranking function of the network when fine tuned by borrowing initial weights from the ResNet-101 model trained on ImageNet by Kaiming He [2].
