Learning models for semantic classification of insufficient plantar pressure images
Establishing a reliable and stable model to predict a target by using insufficient labeled samples is feasible and
effective, particularly, for a sensor-generated data-set. This paper has been inspired with insufficient data-set
learning algorithms, such as metric-based, prototype networks and meta-learning, and therefore we propose
an insufficient data-set transfer model learning method. Firstly, two basic models for transfer learning are
introduced. A classification system and calculation criteria are then subsequently introduced. Secondly, a dataset
of plantar pressure for comfort shoe design is acquired and preprocessed through foot scan system; and by
using a pre-trained convolution neural network employing AlexNet and convolution neural network (CNN)-
based transfer modeling, the classification accuracy of the plantar pressure images is over 93.5%. Finally,
the proposed method has been compared to the current classifiers VGG, ResNet, AlexNet and pre-trained
CNN. Also, our work is compared with known-scaling and shifting (SS) and unknown-plain slot (PS) partition
methods on the public test databases: SUN, CUB, AWA1, AWA2, and aPY with indices of precision (tr, ts, H)
and time (training and evaluation). The proposed method for the plantar pressure classification task shows high
performance in most indices when comparing with other methods. The transfer learning-based method can be
applied to other insufficient data-sets of sensor imaging fields
Learning joint feature adaptation for zero-shot recognition
Zero-shot recognition (ZSR) aims to recognize target-domain data instances of unseen classes based on the models learned from associated pairs of seen-class source and target domain data. One of the key challenges in ZSR is the relative scarcity of source-domain features (e.g. one feature vector per class), which do not fully account for wide variability in target-domain instances. In this paper we propose a novel framework of learning data-dependent feature transforms for scoring similarity between an arbitrary pair of source and target data instances to account for the wide variability in target domain. Our proposed approach is based on optimizing over a parameterized family of local feature displacements that maximize the source-target adaptive similarity functions. Accordingly we propose formulating zero-shot learning (ZSL) using latent structural SVMs to learn our similarity functions from training data. As demonstration we design a specific algorithm under the proposed framework involving bilinear similarity functions and regularized least squares as penalties for feature displacement. We test our approach on several benchmark datasets for ZSR and show significant improvement over the state-of-the-art. For instance, on aP&Y dataset we can achieve 80.89% in terms of recognition accuracy, outperforming the state-of-the-art by 11.15%
Learning Hypergraph-regularized Attribute Predictors
We present a novel attribute learning framework named Hypergraph-based
Attribute Predictor (HAP). In HAP, a hypergraph is leveraged to depict the
attribute relations in the data. Then the attribute prediction problem is
casted as a regularized hypergraph cut problem in which HAP jointly learns a
collection of attribute projections from the feature space to a hypergraph
embedding space aligned with the attribute space. The learned projections
directly act as attribute classifiers (linear and kernelized). This formulation
leads to a very efficient approach. By considering our model as a multi-graph
cut task, our framework can flexibly incorporate other available information,
in particular class label. We apply our approach to attribute prediction,
Zero-shot and -shot learning tasks. The results on AWA, USAA and CUB
databases demonstrate the value of our methods in comparison with the
state-of-the-art approaches.Comment: This is an attribute learning paper accepted by CVPR 201

Structure propagation for zero-shot learning
The key of zero-shot learning (ZSL) is how to find the information transfer
model for bridging the gap between images and semantic information (texts or
attributes). Existing ZSL methods usually construct the compatibility function
between images and class labels with the consideration of the relevance on the
semantic classes (the manifold structure of semantic classes). However, the
relationship of image classes (the manifold structure of image classes) is also
very important for the compatibility model construction. It is difficult to
capture the relationship among image classes due to unseen classes, so that the
manifold structure of image classes often is ignored in ZSL. To complement each
other between the manifold structure of image classes and that of semantic
classes information, we propose structure propagation (SP) for improving the
performance of ZSL for classification. SP can jointly consider the manifold
structure of image classes and that of semantic classes for approximating to
the intrinsic structure of object classes. Moreover, the SP can describe the
constrain condition between the compatibility function and these manifold
structures for balancing the influence of the structure propagation iteration.
The SP solution provides not only unseen class labels but also the relationship
of two manifold structures that encode the positive transfer in structure
propagation. Experimental results demonstrate that SP can attain the promising
results on the AwA, CUB, Dogs and SUN databases
A Generative Model For Zero Shot Learning Using Conditional Variational Autoencoders
Zero shot learning in Image Classification refers to the setting where images
from some novel classes are absent in the training data but other information
such as natural language descriptions or attribute vectors of the classes are
available. This setting is important in the real world since one may not be
able to obtain images of all the possible classes at training. While previous
approaches have tried to model the relationship between the class attribute
space and the image space via some kind of a transfer function in order to
model the image space correspondingly to an unseen class, we take a different
approach and try to generate the samples from the given attributes, using a
conditional variational autoencoder, and use the generated samples for
classification of the unseen classes. By extensive testing on four benchmark
datasets, we show that our model outperforms the state of the art, particularly
in the more realistic generalized setting, where the training classes can also
appear at the test time along with the novel classes
