ABSTRACT
Towards building a practical large-scale logo retrieval system, we propose a novel approach to extract and combine local features for effective logo retrieval. Instead of global feature extraction by modeling the web logo as a whole, we extract the local feature phrases to form a visual codebook and build an inverted file storing the features to accelerate the indexing process. Then we divide logos into several groups according to local feature type based on which feature can model the logo best and naming as "Point-type", "Shape-type" and "Patch-type". We develop a strategy of adaptive feature selection by a weight updating mechanism. To evaluate the performance, we have built a new challenging dataset which consists of 60 international corporations' logos. Experiments and comparisons demonstrate the superior performance to previous retrieval algorithms.

Retrieval of logically relevant 3D human motions by Adaptive Feature Selection with Graded Relevance Feedback
A system that can retrieve logically relevant 3D captured motions is useful in game and animation production. We presented a robust logical relevance metric based on the relative distances among the joints. Existing methods select a universal subset of ...
Efficient logo retrieval through hashing shape context descriptors
DAS '10: Proceedings of the 9th IAPR International Workshop on Document Analysis SystemsIn this paper we present a method for organizing and indexing logo digital libraries like the ones of the patent and trademark offices. We propose an efficient queried-by-example retrieval system which is able to retrieve logos by similarity from large ...
