Abstract

An emerging trend known as lifelogging is a process of digitally documenting and processing the data of an individual’s daily experiences. Lifelogging creates data which can be noisy and with continuity; therefore, it is challenging to give a comprehensive means of retrieving events or moments of interest to the public. This research proposes a deep learning framework to improve memory retrieval from lifelogging data. The proposed framework combines text-image embeddings and ensembles of a zero-shot deep learning model. The framework is implemented using three versions of the Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) model based on the combination of 12 datasets created by seven users containing more than 100000 images. The results are evaluated based on the average precision@k metric for different values of k. This framework improves retrieval performance and shows the possibility of helping people who have Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia to recall useful information using the retrieval framework.
