Learning localized perceptual similarity metrics for interactive categorization

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articleResearchpeer-review

Current similarity-based approaches to interactive fine grained categorization rely on learning metrics from holistic perceptual measurements of similarity between objects or images. However, making a single judgment of similarity at the object level can be a difficult or overwhelming task for the human user to perform. Secondly, a single general metric of similarity may not be able to adequately capture the minute differences that discriminate fine-grained categories. In this work, we propose a novel approach to interactive categorization that leverages multiple perceptual similarity metrics learned from localized and roughly aligned regions across images, reporting state-of-the-art results and outperforming methods that use a single nonlocalized similarity metric.
