dc.description.abstract | In an object recognition scenario with tens of thousands of categories, even a small number of labels per category leads to a very large number of total labels required. We propose a simple method of label sharing between semantically similar categories. We leverage the WordNet hierarchy to define semantic distance between any two categories and use this semantic distance to share labels. Our approach can be used with any classifier. Experimental results on a range of datasets, up to 80 million images and 75,000 categories in size, show that despite the simplicity of the approach, it leads to significant improvements in performance. | en_US |
