| Abstract | Bag-of-words models are among the most widely used and successful representations in multimedia retrieval. However, the quantization error which is introduced when mapping keypoints to visual words is one of the main drawbacks of the bag-of-words model. Although some techniques, such as soft-assignment to bags [23] and query expansion [27], have been introduced to deal with the problem, the performance gain is always at the cost of longer query response time, which makes them difficult to apply to large-scale multimedia retrieval applications. In this paper, we propose a simple "constrained keypoint quantization" method which can effectively reduce the overall quantization error of the bag-of-words representation and greatly improve the retrieval efficiency at the same time. The central idea of the proposed quantization method is that if a keypoint is far away from all visual words, we simply remove it. At first glance, this simple strategy seems naive and dangerous. However, we show that the proposed method has a solid theoretical background. Our experimental results on three widely used datasets for near duplicate image and video retrieval confirm that by removing a large amount of keypoints which have high quantization error, we obtain comparable or even better retrieval performance while dramatically boosting retrieval efficiency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
