The Incremental Multiresolution Matrix Factorization Algorithm
Multiresolution analysis and matrix factorization are foundational tools in
computer vision. In this work, we study the interface between these two
distinct topics and obtain techniques to uncover hierarchical block structure
in symmetric matrices -- an important aspect in the success of many vision
problems. Our new algorithm, the incremental multiresolution matrix
factorization, uncovers such structure one feature at a time, and hence scales
well to large matrices. We describe how this multiscale analysis goes much
farther than what a direct global factorization of the data can identify. We
evaluate the efficacy of the resulting factorizations for relative leveraging
within regression tasks using medical imaging data. We also use the
factorization on representations learned by popular deep networks, providing
evidence of their ability to infer semantic relationships even when they are
not explicitly trained to do so. We show that this algorithm can be used as an
exploratory tool to improve the network architecture, and within numerous other
settings in vision.Comment: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR) 2017, 10 page
Deep Dictionary Learning: A PARametric NETwork Approach
Deep dictionary learning seeks multiple dictionaries at different image
scales to capture complementary coherent characteristics. We propose a method
for learning a hierarchy of synthesis dictionaries with an image classification
goal. The dictionaries and classification parameters are trained by a
classification objective, and the sparse features are extracted by reducing a
reconstruction loss in each layer. The reconstruction objectives in some sense
regularize the classification problem and inject source signal information in
the extracted features. The performance of the proposed hierarchical method
increases by adding more layers, which consequently makes this model easier to
tune and adapt. The proposed algorithm furthermore, shows remarkably lower
fooling rate in presence of adversarial perturbation. The validation of the
proposed approach is based on its classification performance using four
benchmark datasets and is compared to a CNN of similar size
