Abstract:

To narrow the gap between low-level features and high-level concepts in scene recognition, a new algorithm based on the sparse autoencoder was proposed. This algorithm adopted the feature encoding technique that combined the sparse autoencoder and spatial pyramid pooling. First of all, the local HOG descriptors were extracted from scene images, then they were encoded into sparse features by the modified sparse autoencoder. After spatial pyramid pooling and local normalization on these sparse features, the image representation can be obtained. Finally, linear SVM was utilized to implement scene recognition. The experimental results on Scene-15 dataset indicated that the recognition accuracy of this algorithm can be increased up to 81.97%.

Key words: scene recognition, sparse autoencoder, spatial pyramid pooling, local normalization, HOG, SVM
