Abstract

Hashing has been extensively utilized in cross-modal retrieval due to its high efficiency in handling large-scale, high-dimensional data. However, most existing cross-modal hashing methods operate as offline learning models, which learn hash codes in a batch-based manner and prove to be inefficient for streaming data. Recently, several online cross-modal hashing methods have been proposed to address the streaming data scenario. Nevertheless, these methods fail to fully leverage the semantic information and accurately optimize hashing in a discrete fashion. As a result, both the accuracy and efficiency of online cross-modal hashing methods are not ideal. To address these issues, this paper introduces the Semantic Embedding-based Online Cross-modal Hashing (SEOCH) method, which integrates semantic information exploitation and online learning into a unified framework. To exploit the semantic information, we map the semantic labels to a latent semantic space and construct a semantic similarity matrix to preserve the similarity between new data and existing data in the Hamming space. Moreover, we employ a discrete optimization strategy to enhance the efficiency of cross-modal retrieval for online hashing. Through extensive experiments on two publicly available multi-label datasets, we demonstrate the superiority of the SEOCH method.
