Description
Summary:Trademark recognition and retrieval is a vital appliance component of content-based image retrieval (CBIR). Reduction in the semantic gap, attaining more accuracy, reduction in computation complexity, and hence in execution time, are the major challenges in designing and developing a trademark retrieval system. The direction of the proposed work takes into account these challenges by implementing trademark image retrieval through deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) integrated with a relevant feedback mechanism. The dataset features are optimized through particle swarm optimization (PSO), reducing the search space. These best/optimized features are given to the self-organizing map (SOM) for clustering at the preprocessing stage. The CNN model is trained on feature representations of relevant and irrelevant images, using the feedback information from the user bringing the marked relevant images closer to the query. Experimentation proved a significant performance when evaluated using FlickrLogos-27, FlickrLogos-32, and FlickrLogos-32 PLUS datasets, as illustrated in the performance results section.
