Weakly-Supervised Temporal Localization via Occurrence Count Learning
We propose a novel model for temporal detection and localization which allows
the training of deep neural networks using only counts of event occurrences as
training labels. This powerful weakly-supervised framework alleviates the
burden of the imprecise and time-consuming process of annotating event
locations in temporal data. Unlike existing methods, in which localization is
explicitly achieved by design, our model learns localization implicitly as a
byproduct of learning to count instances. This unique feature is a direct
consequence of the model's theoretical properties. We validate the
effectiveness of our approach in a number of experiments (drum hit and piano
onset detection in audio, digit detection in images) and demonstrate
performance comparable to that of fully-supervised state-of-the-art methods,
despite much weaker training requirements.Comment: Accepted at ICML 201
Deep Learning: Our Miraculous Year 1990-1991
In 2020, we will celebrate that many of the basic ideas behind the deep
learning revolution were published three decades ago within fewer than 12
months in our "Annus Mirabilis" or "Miraculous Year" 1990-1991 at TU Munich.
Back then, few people were interested, but a quarter century later, neural
networks based on these ideas were on over 3 billion devices such as
smartphones, and used many billions of times per day, consuming a significant
fraction of the world's compute.Comment: 37 pages, 188 references, based on work of 4 Oct 201
