Abstract

This contribution improves content-based hash functions for image retrieval systems using nested lattice codes. Lattice codes are used to quantize image feature vectors to final hash values. The goal is to develop a nested lattice indexing scheme such that there is a proportional relationship between Euclidean distance and some metric distances (Hamming distance or, as in this paper, weighted Hamming distance and first difference distance) in order to increase the hash function’s robustness. The proposed two-dimensional nested lattice code reduces the normalized mean squared error (NMSE) by 20 % compared to two-dimensional Gray code.
