Abstract


This work addresses the problem of Near-Duplicate Video Retrieval (NDVR). We propose an efficient video-level NDVR scheme based on deep metric learning that leverages CNN features from intermediate layers to generate discriminative global video representations in tandem with a Deep Metric Learning (DML) framework with two fusion variations, trained to approximate an embedding function for accurate distance calculation between two near-duplicate videos. In contrast to most state-of-the-art methods, which exploit information deriving from the same source of data for both development and evaluation (which usually results to dataset-specific solutions), the proposed model is fed during training with sampled triplets generated from an independent dataset and is thoroughly tested on the widely used CC_WEB_VIDEO dataset. We demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves outstanding performance against the state-of-the-art, either with or without access to the evaluation dataset.
