Large-scale Image Retrieval With Attentive Deep Local Features

2016 · 602 cites · Image Retrieval

We propose an attentive local feature descriptor suitable for large-scale image retrieval, referred to as DELF (DEep Local Feature). The new feature is based on convolutional neural networks, which are trained only with…
