This project tries to build a benchmark for image retrieval, particularly for Instance-level image retrieval.

Fisher vector and VLAD are both currently working on the scores dataset. To run them,

1. install score-retrieval,
2. run make, follow the instructions, then run make again,
3. run make yael,
4. run make hesaff,
5. run make setup-dataset,
6. run the commands in the fv or vlad make target manually (make fv/make vlad isn't working right now for some reason).

Note: The training parameters in gmm.py (for FV) and kmeans.py (for VLAD) have been massively reduced for ease of testing. If you want a real training run, increase them.

the methods on above have the following characteristics:

• Low dimension
• Time - tested
• Used in industry
