Progressive Local Filter Pruning for Image Retrieval Acceleration
This paper focuses on network pruning for image retrieval acceleration. Prevailing image retrieval works target at the discriminative feature learning, while little attention is paid to how to accelerate the model inference, which should be taken into consideration in real-world practice. The challenge of pruning image retrieval models is that the middle-level feature should be preserved as much as possible. Such different requirements of the retrieval and classification model make the traditional pruning methods not that suitable for our task. To solve the problem, we propose a new Progressive Local Filter Pruning (PLFP) method for image retrieval acceleration. Specifically, layer by layer, we analyze the local geometric properties of each filter and select the one that can be replaced by the neighbors. Then we progressively prune the filter by gradually changing the filter weights. In this way, the representation ability of the model is preserved. To verify this, we evaluate our method on two widely-used image retrieval datasets,i.e., Oxford5k and Paris6K, and one person re-identification dataset,i.e., Market-1501. The proposed method arrives with superior performance to the conventional pruning methods, suggesting the effectiveness of the proposed method for image retrieval.
