Free-hand sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) is a specific cross-view retrieval task, in
which queries are abstract and ambiguous sketches while the retrieval database is formed …

In this paper, we investigate the problem of zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-
SBIR), where human sketches are used as queries to conduct retrieval of photos from …

Cross-domain images have been witnessed in an increasing number of applications. This
new trend triggers demands for cross-domain image retrieval (CDIR), which finds images in …

A number of modern techniques for neural network training and recognition enhancement
are based on their structures' symmetry. Such approaches demonstrate impressive results …

Sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) is the task of retrieving images from a natural image
database that correspond to a given hand-drawn sketch. Ideally, an SBIR model should …

Nowadays, customer's demands for E-commerce are more diversified, which introduces
more complications to the product retrieval industry. Previous methods are either subject to …
