K-means Hashing: anAffinity-Preserving Quantization Method for Learning Binary Compact Codes论文理解:
1.概述
使用不同距离计算的方法划分两大流派:
• Hamming-basedmethods (LSH)
• lookup-based methods (vector quantization,product quantization)
Hamming-based量化:用超平面,kernelized超平面。(一个超平面用一个bit编码)
lookup-based量化:k-means
• Hamming-based的方法检索速度快,1.5ms内可以扫描完1百万64bit的hamming码,但是量化使用超平面,误差大,检索结果又没有基于查找表的好
• lookup-based的方法使用k-means量化,在最小化量化误差上是最优的,使用相同的编码长度,具有更高的精度,但距离计算比Hamming-based慢。(把每个聚类中心之间的距离存放在一张表里)
2.思想:
K-means Hashing:同时考虑了量化和距离计算
• 量化:Affinity-PreservingK-means。k-均值聚类阶段保留了欧式距离和hamming距离相似性
• K-meansHashing:结合了k-means量化误差小,Hamming计算距离快的优点
3.具体实现
codebook codeword
map a d-dimensional vector
to another vectorq(x) ∈ C = {ci | ci∈Rd, 0 ≤ i ≤ k − 1}. The set C
is known as a codebook, ci is a codeword, and k is thenumber of codewords. Givenb bits for indexing, there are at most
codewordsvector quantization
• VQ:用两个向量码字之间的距离近似代替两个向量之间的距离。
•
i(x)表示x所在的cell的索引。建立一个k*k维的codewords之间距离查找表
• 利用hamming距离计算的优点
4.A Naive Two-step Method
• 第一步:通过K-means量化得到
个码字• 第二步:给每一个码字分配一个最优索引。
• combinatoriallycomplex: there are (2b)! (b是编码的位数)
• b≤3bits this problem is feasible. Whenb = 4 it takes over one dayfor exhausting, and ifb > 4 it is highly intractable.
Affinity-Preserving K-means
• NaiveMethod 没有考虑第一步k-means的量化误差,本论文,同事考虑quantizationerror and the affinity error
•
•
求解过程分分为两步,进行迭代求解:
Assignment step: fix{ci}and optimize i(x). 类似于k-means分类,把x分配到距离最近的码字
Update step: fix i(x)and optimize {ci}.
迭代优化,initializethe indicesi(x)使用PCA-hashing
Relation to Existing Methods
• VectorQuantization:只考虑量化误差,没有用hamming编码,少了affinityerror。Affinity-PreservingK-meansSettingλ = 0退化到VQ
• IterativeQuantization:假设数据是b维,如果d(・,・),dh(・,・)相同,个码字必须来自b维超立方体的顶点
•
• {rt}are b-dimensional orthogonal bases
•
• 如果d(・,・),dh(・,・)相同,等价于本方法中λ= ∞
Geometric View
• vectorquantization method using the vertexes of a rotatedhyper-cube as thecodewords.
• Thismethod allows to “stretch” the hyper-cube while rotating
Generalization to a Product Space
• hamming编码的码字计算和存放需要空间,而且b个bit的hamming码最多只能表示
个码字。具体请参考product quantization for nearest neighbor search这篇论文。
实验结果:
• 评价指标:Therecall is defined as the fraction of retrieved true nearest neighbors to thetotal number of true nearest neighbors. set K=10 in the experiments.
