Highlights [Hashing Survey]


Structure Sensitive Quantization

Hashing has been proved an attractive technique for fast nearest neighbor search over big data. Compared to embedding the data by simply linear projection, discovering the intrinsic structures underlying the data will enable the hash codes to own stronger discriminative power for fast nearest neighbor search over large-scale datasets.

Complementary Multi-Index Hashing

Hashing has been proven a promising technique for fast nearest neighbor search over massive databases. In many practical tasks it usually builds multiple hash tables for a desired level of recall performance. In the literature LSH-based multiple table indexing is usually adopted to independently build a set of hash tables using LSH functions, which can faithfully improve the recall performance (Lv et al. 2007; Norouzi, Punjani, and Fleet 2012; Xia et al. 2013; Cheng et al. 2014). However, without eliminating the table redundancy it often requires a huge number of tables, at the cost of significantly sacrificing precision.

Hash-based Approximate Computing

Hashing has become an increasingly popular technique for fast approximate computing. Despite its successful progress in classic point-to-point search problem, there are few studies regarding its applications in the large-scale machine learning problems, including classification, detection, recommendation, deep learning, etc., where the key computation can be approximately completed using the bit manipulations on the binary codes, and thus can be significantly accelerated by hashing.
