Exploiting PLSA model and conditional random field for refining image annotation

扫码查看
This paper presents a new method for refining image annotation by integrating probabilistic latent semantic analysis (PLSA) with conditional random field (CRF).First a PLSA model with asymmetric modalities is constructed to predict a candidate set of annotations with confidence scores,and then model semantic relationship among the candidate annotations by leveraging conditional random field.In CRF,the confidence scores generated by the PLSA model and the Flickr distance between pairwise candidate annotations are considered as local evidences and contextual potentials respectively.The novelty of our method mainly lies in two aspects:exploiting PLSA to predict a candidate setof annotations with confidence scores as well as CRF to further explore the semantic context among candidate annotations for precise image annotation.To demonstrate the effectiveness of the method proposed in thispaper,an experiment is conducted on the standard Corel dataset and its results are compared favorably with several state-of-the-art approaches.
