In this paper, we leverage CLIP for zero-shot sketch based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR). We
are largely inspired by recent advances on foundation models and the unparalleled …

Fine-grained image analysis (FGIA) is a longstanding and fundamental problem in computer
vision and pattern recognition, and underpins a diverse set of real-world applications. The …

Given an abstract, deformed, ordinary sketch from untrained amateurs like you and me, this
paper turns it into a photorealistic image-just like those shown in Fig. 1 (a), all non-cherry …

Sketching enables many exciting applications, notably, image retrieval. The fear-to-sketch
problem (ie," I can't sketch") has however proven to be fatal for its widespread adoption. This …

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 …

In this paper we propose a novel abstraction-aware sketch-based image retrieval framework
capable of handling sketch abstraction at varied levels. Prior works had mainly focused on …

Human sketch has already proved its worth in various visual understanding tasks (eg,
retrieval, segmentation, image-captioning, etc). In this paper, we reveal a new trait of …

This paper advances the fine-grained sketch-based image retrieval (FG-SBIR) literature by
putting forward a strong baseline that overshoots prior state-of-the art by 11%. This is not via …

This paper for the first time explores text-to-image diffusion models for Zero-Shot Sketch-
based Image Retrieval (ZS-SBIR). We highlight a pivotal discovery: the capacity of text-to …

Two primary input modalities prevail in image retrieval: sketch and text. While text is widely
used for inter-category retrieval tasks sketches have been established as the sole preferred …
