LDA-Based Automatic Image Annotation Model
Zheng Liu · Advanced materials research · 2010
This paper presents LDA-based automatic image annotation by visual topic learning and related annotation extending. We introduce the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model in visual application domain. Firstly, the visual topic which is most relevant to the unlabeled image is obtained. According to this visual topic, the annotations with highest likelihood serve as seed annotations. Next, seed annotations are extended by analyzing the relationship between seed annotations and related Flickr tags. Finally, we combine seed annotations and extended annotations to construct final annotation set. Experiments conducted on corel5k dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model.
