Hashing based methods have attracted considerable attention for efficient cross-modal retrieval on large-scale multimedia data. The core problem of cross-modal hashing is how to effectively integrate heterogeneous features from different modalities to learn hash functions using available supervising information, e.g., class labels. Existing hashing based methods generally project heterogeneous features to a common space for hash codes generation, and the supervising information is incrementally used for improving performance. However, these methods may produce ineffective hash codes, due to the failure to explore the discriminative property of supervising information and to effectively bridge the semantic gap between different modalities. To address these challenges, we propose a novel hashing based method in a linear classification framework, in which the proposed method learns modality-specific hash functions for generating unified binary codes, and these binary codes are viewed as representative features for discriminative classification with class labels. An effective optimization algorithm is developed for the proposed method to jointly learn the modality-specific hash function, the unified binary codes and a linear classifier. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets highlight the advantage of the proposed method and show that it achieves the state-of-the-art performance.
