Optimised KD-trees for fast image descriptor matching
Abstract
In this paper, we look at improving the KD-tree for a specific usage: indexing a large number of SIFT and other types of image descriptors. We have extended priority search, to priority search among multiple trees. By creating multiple KD-trees from the same data set and simultaneously searching among these trees, we have improved the KD-treepsilas search performance significantly.We have also exploited the structure in SIFT descriptors (or structure in any data set) to reduce the time spent in backtracking. By using Principal Component Analysis to align the principal axes of the data with the coordinate axes, we have further increased the KD-treepsilas search performance.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
