Abstract: | In recent years, the development of deep learning has further improved hash retrieval technology. Most of the existing hashing methods currently use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) to process image and text information, respectively. This makes images or texts subject to local constraints, and inherent label matching cannot capture fine-grained information, often leading to suboptimal results. Driven by the development of the transformer model, we propose a framework called ViT2CMH mainly based on the Vision Transformer to handle deep Cross-modal Hashing tasks rather than CNNs or RNNs. Specifically, we use a BERT network to extract text features and use the vision transformer as the image network of the model. Finally, the features are transformed into hash codes for efficient and fast retrieval. We conduct extensive experiments on Microsoft COCO (MS-COCO) and Flickr30K, comparing with baselines of some hashing methods and image-text matching methods, showing that our method has better performance. |
