What is the best way for extracting meaningful attributes from pictures?

作者:

Highlights:

• We proposed a metric to automatically measure visual attribute meaningfulness.

• The metric is based on subspace interpolation on a decision boundary manifold.

• Meaningfulness distance is computed via approximated distance on the manifold.

• An improved metric calibration method is developed based on the in-depth analysis.

• We present extensive experiments and analysis on four popular attribute datasets.
