- Ability to learn from a single instance is something unique to the human species and One-shot learning algorithms try to mimic this special capability. On the other hand, despite the fantastic performance of Deep Learning-based methods on various image classification problems, performance often depends having on a huge number of annotated training samples per class. This fact is certainly a hindrance in deploying deep neural network-based systems in many real-life applications like face recognition. Furthermore, an addition of a new class to the system will require the need to re-train the whole system from scratch. Nevertheless, the prowess of deep learned features could also not be ignored. This research aims to combine the best of deep learned features with a traditional One-Shot learning framework. Results obtained on 2 publicly available datasets are very encouraging achieving over 90% accuracy on 5-way One-Shot tasks, and 84% on 50-way One-Shot problems.

Finding Logo and Seal in Historical Document Images - : An Object Detection based Approach

- Logo and Seal serves the purpose of authenticating and referring to the source of a document. This strategy was also prevalent in the medieval period. Different algorithm exists for detection of logo and seal in document images. A close look into the present state-of-the-art methods reveals that those methods were focused toward detection of logo and seal in contemporary document images. However, such methods are likely to underperform while dealing with historical documents. This is due to the fact that historical documents are attributed with additional challenges like extra noise, bleed-through effect, blurred foreground elements and low contrast. The proposed method frames the problem of the logo and seals detection in an object detection framework. Using a deep-learning technique it counters earlier mentioned problems and evades the need for any pre-processing stage like layout analysis and/or binarization in the system pipeline. The experiments were conducted on historical images from 12th to the 16th century and the results obtained were very encouraging for detecting logo in historical document images. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt on logo detection in historical document images using an object-detection based approach.
