Abstract
To solve the current problem of low retrieval accuracy in deep hashing image retrieval, an improved generative adversarial network (GAN)-based image hashing retrieval method using supervised contrast learning (SconGAN) is proposed. The method augments training samples by introducing dense residual blocks and content fidelity items into the generative network to synthesize more diverse images with higher quality; moreover, it enhances the feature discrimination ability of the discriminative network by introducing pyramidal convolution and supervised contrast learning. Meanwhile, it improves the hashing code generation quality by introducing new pairwise similarity loss, semantic retention loss and quantization loss into the hashing network. In addition, discriminative networks and hashing networks share the core network structure to reduce resource consumption and improve training efficiency. Comprehensive experiments on the CIFAR-10 and NUS-WIDE benchmark datasets show that the proposed method greatly outperforms the comparison methods and obtains the best mean average precision (MAP).
