Abstract: Highlights•The salience of a feature can be changed given different queries.•Multi-modal problems need a flexible weighting function to deal with modality.•Proposing a differentiable, flexible, and general weighting function.•The proposed is optimized for k-NN algorithm and assessed through experiments.•The experiment results confirm the effectiveness of proposed weighting function.
