Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel supervised hierarchical sparse coding model based on local image descriptors for classification tasks. The supervised dictionary training is performed via back-projection, by minimizing the training error of classifying the image level features, which are extracted by max pooling over the sparse codes within a spatial pyramid. Such a max pooling procedure across multiple spatial scales offer the model translation invariant properties, similar to the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Experiments show that our supervised dictionary improves the performance of the proposed model significantly over the unsupervised dictionary, leading to state-of-the-art performance on diverse image databases. Further more, our supervised model targets learning linear features, implying its great potential in handling large scale datasets in real applications.
摘要
针对分类任务，提出了一种新颖的基于局部图像描述子的监督分级稀疏编码模型。
通过 back-projection方法，以最小化在图像层级特征(image level features)的分类误差训练监督词典。其中图像层级特征是以空间金字塔为结构max pooling稀疏编码。在多种空间尺度下max pooling方法具有平移不变的特性，如同 CNN(Convolutional Neural Network)一样。
实验证明，与无监督词典相比，监督词典明显地改善了模型的性能，并且在多个图像数据库拥有最好的表现。
另外，监督模型目标是学习线性特征，它蕴含了一个巨大潜能 -实时地处理大规模数据库。

Conclusion
A supervised translation-invariant sparse coding model for image classification A generic image representation. The max pooling feature is translation-invariant. Sparse coding on local descriptors is promising compared to
sparse coding on holistic image. Supervised sparse coding improves the performance
significantly. Next steps:
Connections with hierarchical models in deep belief networks should be investigated.
More theoretical analysis for pooling functions are needed. Deep hierarchical models based on sparse coding should be
studied.
