Temporal Model Adaptation for Person Re-Identification
Person re-identification is an open and challenging problem in computer
vision. Majority of the efforts have been spent either to design the best
feature representation or to learn the optimal matching metric. Most approaches
have neglected the problem of adapting the selected features or the learned
model over time. To address such a problem, we propose a temporal model
adaptation scheme with human in the loop. We first introduce a
similarity-dissimilarity learning method which can be trained in an incremental
fashion by means of a stochastic alternating directions methods of multipliers
optimization procedure. Then, to achieve temporal adaptation with limited human
effort, we exploit a graph-based approach to present the user only the most
informative probe-gallery matches that should be used to update the model.
Results on three datasets have shown that our approach performs on par or even
better than state-of-the-art approaches while reducing the manual pairwise
labeling effort by about 80%
Evidence Transfer for Improving Clustering Tasks Using External Categorical Evidence
In this paper we introduce evidence transfer for clustering, a deep learning
method that can incrementally manipulate the latent representations of an
autoencoder, according to external categorical evidence, in order to improve a
clustering outcome. By evidence transfer we define the process by which the
categorical outcome of an external, auxiliary task is exploited to improve a
primary task, in this case representation learning for clustering. Our proposed
method makes no assumptions regarding the categorical evidence presented, nor
the structure of the latent space. We compare our method, against the baseline
solution by performing k-means clustering before and after its deployment.
Experiments with three different kinds of evidence show that our method
effectively manipulates the latent representations when introduced with real
corresponding evidence, while remaining robust when presented with low quality
evidence
A Survey of Adaptive Resonance Theory Neural Network Models for Engineering Applications
This survey samples from the ever-growing family of adaptive resonance theory
(ART) neural network models used to perform the three primary machine learning
modalities, namely, unsupervised, supervised and reinforcement learning. It
comprises a representative list from classic to modern ART models, thereby
painting a general picture of the architectures developed by researchers over
the past 30 years. The learning dynamics of these ART models are briefly
described, and their distinctive characteristics such as code representation,
long-term memory and corresponding geometric interpretation are discussed.
Useful engineering properties of ART (speed, configurability, explainability,
parallelization and hardware implementation) are examined along with current
challenges. Finally, a compilation of online software libraries is provided. It
is expected that this overview will be helpful to new and seasoned ART
researchers
