    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing patch size adaptation for patch-based image enhancement operations. In one embodiment, an image manipulation application receives an input image. The image manipulation application compares a value for an attribute of at least one input patch of the input image to a threshold value. Based on comparing the value for the to the threshold value, the image manipulation application adjusts a first patch size of the input patch to a second patch size that improves performance of a patch-based image enhancement operation as compared to the first patch size. The image manipulation application performs the patch-based image enhancement operation based on one or more input patches of the input image having the second patch size.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an automated image tagging system that can predict a set of tags, along with relevance scores, that can be used for keyword-based image retrieval, image tag proposal, and image tag auto-completion based on user input. Initially, during training, a clustering technique is utilized to reduce cluster imbalance in the data that is input into a convolutional neural network (CNN) for training feature data. In embodiments, the clustering technique can also be utilized to compute data point similarity that can be utilized for tag propagation (to tag untagged images). During testing, a diversity based voting framework is utilized to overcome user tagging biases. In some embodiments, bigram re-weighting can down-weight a keyword that is likely to be part of a bigram based on a predicted tag set.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for image feature representation. The techniques exhibit discriminative power that can be used in any number of classification tasks, and are particularly effective with respect to fine-grained image classification tasks. In an embodiment, a given image to be classified is divided into image patches. A vector is generated for each image patch. Each image patch vector is compared to the Gaussian mixture components (each mixture component is also a vector) of a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM). Each such comparison generates a similarity score for each image patch vector. For each Gaussian mixture component, the image patch vectors associated with a similarity score that is too low are eliminated. The selectively pooled vectors from all the Gaussian mixture components are then concatenated to form the final image feature vector, which can be provided to a classifier so the given input image can be properly categorized.

    Abstract: Techniques for increasing robustness of a convolutional neural network based on training that uses multiple datasets and multiple tasks are described. For example, a computer system trains the convolutional neural network across multiple datasets and multiple tasks. The convolutional neural network is configured for learning features from images and accordingly generating feature vectors. By using multiple datasets and multiple tasks, the robustness of the convolutional neural network is increased. A feature vector of an image is used to apply an image-related operation to the image. For example, the image is classified, indexed, or objects in the image are tagged based on the feature vector. Because the robustness is increased, the accuracy of the generating feature vectors is also increased. Hence, the overall quality of an image service is enhanced, where the image service relies on the image-related operation.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to training a classifier algorithm that can be used for automatically selecting tags to be applied to a received image. For example, a computing device can group training images together based on the training images having similar tags. The computing device trains a classifier algorithm to identify the training images as semantically similar to one another based on the training images being grouped together. The trained classifier algorithm is used to determine that an input image is semantically similar to an example tagged image. A tag is generated for the input image using tag content from the example tagged image based on determining that the input image is semantically similar to the tagged image.
