Recent Advances in Transfer Learning for Cross-Dataset Visual Recognition: A Problem-Oriented Perspective
This paper takes a problem-oriented perspective and presents a comprehensive
review of transfer learning methods, both shallow and deep, for cross-dataset
visual recognition. Specifically, it categorises the cross-dataset recognition
into seventeen problems based on a set of carefully chosen data and label
attributes. Such a problem-oriented taxonomy has allowed us to examine how
different transfer learning approaches tackle each problem and how well each
problem has been researched to date. The comprehensive problem-oriented review
of the advances in transfer learning with respect to the problem has not only
revealed the challenges in transfer learning for visual recognition, but also
the problems (e.g. eight of the seventeen problems) that have been scarcely
studied. This survey not only presents an up-to-date technical review for
researchers, but also a systematic approach and a reference for a machine
learning practitioner to categorise a real problem and to look up for a
possible solution accordingly
Learning with Augmented Features for Heterogeneous Domain Adaptation
We propose a new learning method for heterogeneous domain adaptation (HDA),
in which the data from the source domain and the target domain are represented
by heterogeneous features with different dimensions. Using two different
projection matrices, we first transform the data from two domains into a common
subspace in order to measure the similarity between the data from two domains.
We then propose two new feature mapping functions to augment the transformed
data with their original features and zeros. The existing learning methods
(e.g., SVM and SVR) can be readily incorporated with our newly proposed
augmented feature representations to effectively utilize the data from both
domains for HDA. Using the hinge loss function in SVM as an example, we
introduce the detailed objective function in our method called Heterogeneous
Feature Augmentation (HFA) for a linear case and also describe its
kernelization in order to efficiently cope with the data with very high
dimensions. Moreover, we also develop an alternating optimization algorithm to
effectively solve the nontrivial optimization problem in our HFA method.
Comprehensive experiments on two benchmark datasets clearly demonstrate that
HFA outperforms the existing HDA methods.Comment: ICML201
BL-MNE: Emerging Heterogeneous Social Network Embedding through Broad Learning with Aligned Autoencoder
Network embedding aims at projecting the network data into a low-dimensional
feature space, where the nodes are represented as a unique feature vector and
network structure can be effectively preserved. In recent years, more and more
online application service sites can be represented as massive and complex
networks, which are extremely challenging for traditional machine learning
algorithms to deal with. Effective embedding of the complex network data into
low-dimension feature representation can both save data storage space and
enable traditional machine learning algorithms applicable to handle the network
data. Network embedding performance will degrade greatly if the networks are of
a sparse structure, like the emerging networks with few connections. In this
paper, we propose to learn the embedding representation for a target emerging
network based on the broad learning setting, where the emerging network is
aligned with other external mature networks at the same time. To solve the
problem, a new embedding framework, namely "Deep alIgned autoencoder based
eMbEdding" (DIME), is introduced in this paper. DIME handles the diverse link
and attribute in a unified analytic based on broad learning, and introduces the
multiple aligned attributed heterogeneous social network concept to model the
network structure. A set of meta paths are introduced in the paper, which
define various kinds of connections among users via the heterogeneous link and
attribute information. The closeness among users in the networks are defined as
the meta proximity scores, which will be fed into DIME to learn the embedding
vectors of users in the emerging network. Extensive experiments have been done
on real-world aligned social networks, which have demonstrated the
effectiveness of DIME in learning the emerging network embedding vectors.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures, 4 tables. Full paper is accepted by ICDM 2017,
