A lexica family with small semantic gap
Defining a lexicon of high-level concepts is the first step for data collection and model construction in concept-based image retrieval. Differences of semantic gaps among concepts are well worth considering. By measuring consistency in visual space and textual space, concepts with small semantic gap can be obtained. Considering so many diverse concepts in large-scale image dataset, we construct a lexica family of high-level concepts with small semantic gap based on different low-level features and different consistency measurements. In this lexica family, the lexica are independent to each other and mutually complementary. It provides helpful suggestions about data collection, feature selection and search model construction for large-scale image retrieval.
