Joint & Progressive Learning from High-Dimensional Data for Multi-Label Classification
Despite the fact that nonlinear subspace learning techniques (e.g. manifold
learning) have successfully applied to data representation, there is still room
for improvement in explainability (explicit mapping), generalization
(out-of-samples), and cost-effectiveness (linearization). To this end, a novel
linearized subspace learning technique is developed in a joint and progressive
way, called \textbf{j}oint and \textbf{p}rogressive \textbf{l}earning
str\textbf{a}teg\textbf{y} (J-Play), with its application to multi-label
classification. The J-Play learns high-level and semantically meaningful
feature representation from high-dimensional data by 1) jointly performing
multiple subspace learning and classification to find a latent subspace where
samples are expected to be better classified; 2) progressively learning
multi-coupled projections to linearly approach the optimal mapping bridging the
original space with the most discriminative subspace; 3) locally embedding
manifold structure in each learnable latent subspace. Extensive experiments are
performed to demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed
method in comparison with previous state-of-the-art methods.Comment: accepted in ECCV 201
Objects that Sound
In this paper our objectives are, first, networks that can embed audio and
visual inputs into a common space that is suitable for cross-modal retrieval;
and second, a network that can localize the object that sounds in an image,
given the audio signal. We achieve both these objectives by training from
unlabelled video using only audio-visual correspondence (AVC) as the objective
function. This is a form of cross-modal self-supervision from video.
To this end, we design new network architectures that can be trained for
cross-modal retrieval and localizing the sound source in an image, by using the
AVC task. We make the following contributions: (i) show that audio and visual
embeddings can be learnt that enable both within-mode (e.g. audio-to-audio) and
between-mode retrieval; (ii) explore various architectures for the AVC task,
including those for the visual stream that ingest a single image, or multiple
images, or a single image and multi-frame optical flow; (iii) show that the
semantic object that sounds within an image can be localized (using only the
sound, no motion or flow information); and (iv) give a cautionary tale on how
to avoid undesirable shortcuts in the data preparation.Comment: Appears in: European Conference on Computer Vision (ECCV) 201
