Proxy Zero-Shot Hashing with Multimodal Fusion via Stable Diffusion

Hui Zhang, Weikang Gao, Tao Yang, Yuan Cao

Abstract

With the rapid growth of visual content in open-world environments, zero-shot hashing image retrieval (ZSHIR) has emerged to tackle the challenge of recognizing novel classes using attribute-level and semantic information. However, existing methods often rely on shallow fusion of multi-source cues (e.g., attributes, labels, and visual features) through external supervision or feature concatenation, failing to capture the underlying semantic structure in a generative way. Particularly, current bridging strategies between modalities suffer from information fragmentation and weak alignment, hindering the model
