ASSIGNMENT 1
CS4186 VISION AND IMAGE
INSTANCE SEARCH
You are given a collection of 5,000 images, 10 example query instances and 20 testing query
instances (you can download from this link: google driver link). Each image contains one
instance (object). Your task is to implement two methods for instance search. Specifically,
given a query instance, a method needs to find the images that contain the same query
instance from the image collection and then ranks them according to similarity or
confidence.
Marking scheme
A. Report (no more than 5 pages): Write a report that briefly describes the two methods
and compares their search performance for the 10 example query instances. The
performance should be measured by mean average precision (MAP). The MAP program
is given to you. You should also show the results for some queries by listing the retrieved
images.
(20%)
B. Algorithm: Implement any two methods that you learn in class (e.g., color histogram,
LBP, filter banks, SIFT) for instance search.
(30%)
C. Benchmarking: For each of your methods, show the retrieval result for each of the 20
testing query instances. The mark will be allocated based on the retrieval performance
of the method with better performance. (50%)
DEADLINE
The submission should be done before 15-Mar, 11:59pm.
Penalty on late submission: 20% of marks will be deducted per day. No submission will
be allowed after five days from the deadline. Do NOT copy code from the internet and do
not borrow other people’s code. Remember that PLAGIARISM is a serious offense for which
you may fail the class or even be expelled from the university
