Binary Online Learned Descriptors

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2018
We propose a novel approach to generate a binary descriptor optimized for each image patch independently. The approach is inspired by the linear discriminant embedding that simultaneously increases inter and decreases intra class distances. A set of discriminative and uncorrelated binary tests is established from all possible tests in an offline ...
