Zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR) is a specific cross-modal retrieval task for searching natural images given free-hand sketches under the zero-shot scenario. Most existing methods solve this problem by simultaneously projecting visual features and semantic supervision into a low-dimensional common space for efficient retrieval. However, such low-dimensional projection destroys the completeness of semantic knowledge in original semantic space, so that it is unable to transfer useful knowledge well when learning semantic from different modalities. Moreover, the domain information and semantic information are entangled in visual features, which is not conducive for cross-modal matching since it will hinder the reduction of domain gap between sketch and image. In this paper, we propose a Progressive Domain-independent Feature Decomposition (PDFD) network for ZS-SBIR. Specifically, with the supervision of original semantic knowledge, PDFD decomposes visual features into domain features and semantic ones, and then the semantic features are projected into common space as retrieval features for ZS-SBIR. The progressive projection strategy maintains strong semantic supervision. Besides, to guarantee the retrieval features to capture clean and complete semantic information, the cross-reconstruction loss is introduced to encourage that any combinations of retrieval features and domain features can reconstruct the visual features. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our PDFD over state-of-the-art competitors.

Zero-Shot Sketch-Based Image Retrieval (ZS-SBIR) is a novel cross-modal retrieval task, where abstract sketches are used as queries to retrieve natural images under zero-shot scenario. Most existing methods regard ZS-SBIR as a traditional classificat
ion problem and employ a cross-entropy or triplet-based loss to achieve retrieval, which neglect the problems of the domain gap between sketches and natural images and the large intra-class diversity in sketches. Toward this end, we propose a novel Domain-Smoothing Network (DSN) for ZS-SBIR. Specifically, a cross-modal contrastive method is proposed to learn generalized representations to smooth the domain gap by mining relations with additional augmented samples. Furthermore, a category-specific memory bank with sketch features is explored to reduce intra-class diversity in the sketch domain. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach notably outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in both Sketchy and TU-Berlin datasets. Our source code is publicly available at https://github.com/haowang1992/DSN.
The goal of Sketch-Based Image Retrieval (SBIR) is using free-hand sketches to retrieve images of the same category from a natural image gallery. However, SBIR requires all test categories to be seen during training, which cannot be guaranteed in rea
l-world applications. So we investigate more challenging Zero-Shot SBIR (ZS-SBIR), in which test categories do not appear in the training stage. After realizing that sketches mainly contain structure information while images contain additional appearance information, we attempt to achieve structure-aware retrieval via asymmetric disentanglement.For this purpose, we propose our STRucture-aware Asymmetric Disentanglement (STRAD) method, in which image features are disentangled into structure features and appearance features while sketch features are only projected to structure space. Through disentangling structure and appearance space, bi-directional domain translation is performed between the sketch domain and the image domain. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our STRAD method remarkably outperforms state-of-the-art methods on three large-scale benchmark datasets.
This paper proposes a novel approach for Sketch-Based Image Retrieval (SBIR), for which the key is to bridge the gap between sketches and photos in terms of the data representation. Inspired by channel-wise attention explored in recent years, we pres
ent a Domain-Aware Squeeze-and-Excitation (DASE) network, which seamlessly incorporates the prior knowledge of sample sketch or photo into SE module and make the SE module capable of emphasizing appropriate channels according to domain signal. Accordingly, the proposed network can switch its mode to achieve a better domain feature with lower intra-class discrepancy. Moreover, while previous works simply focus on minimizing intra-class distance and maximizing inter-class distance, we introduce a loss function, named Multiplicative Euclidean Margin Softmax (MEMS), which introduces multiplicative Euclidean margin into feature space and ensure that the maximum intra-class distance is smaller than the minimum inter-class distance. This facilitates learning a highly discriminative feature space and ensures a more accurate image retrieval result. Extensive experiments are conducted on two widely used SBIR benchmark datasets. Our approach achieves better results on both datasets, surpassing the state-of-the-art methods by a large margin.
Current supervised sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) methods achieve excellent performance. However, the cost of data collection and labeling imposes an intractable barrier to practical deployment of real applications. In this paper, we present the
first attempt at unsupervised SBIR to remove the labeling cost (category annotations and sketch-photo pairings) that is conventionally needed for training. Existing single-domain unsupervised representation learning methods perform poorly in this application, due to the unique cross-domain (sketch and photo) nature of the problem. We therefore introduce a novel framework that simultaneously performs unsupervised representation learning and sketch-photo domain alignment. Technically this is underpinned by exploiting joint distribution optimal transport (JDOT) to align data from different domains during representation learning, which we extend with trainable cluster prototypes and feature memory banks to further improve scalability and efficacy. Extensive experiments show that our framework achieves excellent performance in the new unsupervised setting, and performs comparably or better than state-of-the-art in the zero-shot setting.
Sketch-based image retrieval (SBIR) is a cross-modal matching problem which is typically solved by learning a joint embedding space where the semantic content shared between photo and sketch modalities are preserved. However, a fundamental challenge
in SBIR has been largely ignored so far, that is, sketches are drawn by humans and considerable style variations exist amongst different users. An effective SBIR model needs to explicitly account for this style diversity, crucially, to generalise to unseen user styles. To this end, a novel style-agnostic SBIR model is proposed. Different from existing models, a cross-modal variational autoencoder (VAE) is employed to explicitly disentangle each sketch into a semantic content part shared with the corresponding photo, and a style part unique to the sketcher. Importantly, to make our model dynamically adaptable to any unseen user styles, we propose to meta-train our cross-modal VAE by adding two style-adaptive components: a set of feature transformation layers to its encoder and a regulariser to the disentangled semantic content latent code. With this meta-learning framework, our model can not only disentangle the cross-modal shared semantic content for SBIR, but can adapt the disentanglement to any unseen user style as well, making the SBIR model truly style-agnostic. Extensive experiments show that our style-agnostic model yields state-of-the-art performance for both category-level and instance-level SBIR.
