2. Learning the visual vocabulary Clustering Slide credit: Josef Sivic Visual vocabulary

Clustering The assignment of objects into groups (called clusters) so that objects from the same cluster are more similar to each other than objects from different clusters. Often similarity is assessed according to a distance measure. Clustering is a common technique for statistical data analysis, which is used in many fields, including machine learning, data mining, pattern recognition, image analysis and bioinformatics.

Any of the similarity metrics we talked about before (SSD, angle between vectors)

Feature Clustering Clustering is the process of grouping a set of features into clusters of similar features. Features within a cluster should be similar. Features from different clusters should be dissimilar.

K-means clustering Want to minimize sum of squared Euclidean distances between points x i and their nearest cluster centers m k source: Svetlana Lazebnik

Hierarchical clustering strategies Agglomerative clustering Start with each point in a separate cluster At each iteration, merge two of the closest clusters Divisive clustering Start with all points grouped into a single cluster At each iteration, split the largest cluster source: Svetlana Lazebnik

source: Dan Klein

Divisive Clustering Top-down (instead of bottom-up as in Agglomerative Clustering) Start with all docs in one big cluster Then recursively split clusters Eventually each node forms a cluster on its own. Source: Hinrich Schutze

Flat or hierarchical clustering? For high efficiency, use flat clustering (e.g. k means) For deterministic results: hierarchical clustering When a hierarchical structure is desired: hierarchical algorithm Hierarchical clustering can also be applied if K cannot be predetermined (can start without knowing K) Source: Hinrich Schutze

2. Learning the visual vocabulary Clustering Slide credit: Josef Sivic Visual vocabulary

From clustering to vector quantization Clustering is a common method for learning a visual vocabulary or codebook Unsupervised learning process Each cluster center produced by k-means becomes a codebook entry Codebook can be learned on separate training set Provided the training set is sufficiently representative, the codebook will be universal The codebook is used for quantizing features A vector quantizer takes a feature vector and maps it to the index of the nearest entry in the codebook Codebook = visual vocabulary Codebook entry = visual word

Example visual vocabulary Fei-Fei et al. 2005

Image patch examples of visual words Sivic et al. 2005

Visual vocabularies: Issues How to choose vocabulary size? Too small: visual words not representative of all patches Too large: quantization artifacts, overfitting Computational efficiency Vocabulary trees (Nister & Stewenius, 2006)

3. Image representation .. frequency codewords

Image classification (next) Given the bag-of-features representations of images from different classes, how do we learn a model for distinguishing them?

Each name in the dataset is a potential cluster. Want to simultaneously: 1.) Learn image model for each person. 2.) Learn depiction model across names. Achieve both of these by considering a big assignment (clustering) problem. Goal
