Mutual Exclusivity Loss for Semi-Supervised Deep Learning
In this paper we consider the problem of semi-supervised learning with deep
Convolutional Neural Networks (ConvNets). Semi-supervised learning is motivated
on the observation that unlabeled data is cheap and can be used to improve the
accuracy of classifiers. In this paper we propose an unsupervised
regularization term that explicitly forces the classifier's prediction for
multiple classes to be mutually-exclusive and effectively guides the decision
boundary to lie on the low density space between the manifolds corresponding to
different classes of data. Our proposed approach is general and can be used
with any backpropagation-based learning method. We show through different
experiments that our method can improve the object recognition performance of
ConvNets using unlabeled data.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figures, ICIP 201
