Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Networks

Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Networks Figure 1. The proposed SAGAN generates images by leveraging complementary features in distant portions of the image rather than local regions of fixed shape to generate consistent objects/scenarios. In each row, the first image shows five representative query locations with color coded dots.

Deep Gaussian Processes

representational power of a Gaussian process in the same role is significantly greater than that of an RBM. For the GP the corresponding likelihood is over a continuous vari-able, but it is a nonlinear function of the inputs, p(yjx) = N yjf(x);˙2; where N j ;˙2 is a Gaussian density with mean and variance ˙2. In this case the likelihood is ...

Noise-contrastive estimation: A new estimation principle ...

ated noise y. The estimation principle thus relies on noise with which the data is contrasted, so that we will refer to the new method as “noise-contrastive estima-tion”. In Section 2, we formally define noise-contrastive es-timation, establish fundamental statistical properties, and make the connection to supervised learning ex-plicit.

117 million Americans are included in law en-forcement face recognition networks. A year-long research investigation across 100 police de-partments revealed that African-American indi-viduals are more likely to be stopped by law enforcement and be subjected to face recogni-tion searches than individuals of other ethnici-ties (Garvie et al.,2016).

Bootstrap Your Own Latent A New Approach to Self ...

Contrastive approaches avoid a costly generation step in pixel space by bringing representation of different views of the same image closer (‘positive pairs’), and spreading representations of views from different images (‘negative pairs’) apart [39, 40]. Contrastive methods often require

Contrastive analysis is concerned with the study of a pair of languages with the aim of discovering their structural similarities and differences. Contrastive Analysis is a method that was widely used in the 1960s and early 1970s to explain why some features of a target language were more difficult to learn than others. (Mozlan, 2015)

With the above approaches, we perform contrastive learning densely using a fully con-volutional network (FCN) [26], similar to target dense pre-diction tasks. Our main contributions are thus summarized as follows.

contrastive learning [5,19,5,3,18] currently achieved state-of-the-art performance, arousing extensive attention from researchers. Unlike generative methods, contrastive learning avoids the computation-consuming generation step by pulling representations of different views of the same im-age (i.e., positive pairs) close, and pushing representations

Exploring Simple Siamese Representation Learning

Contrastive learning. The core idea of contrastive learn-ing [16] is to attract the positive sample pairs and repulse the negative sample pairs. This methodology has been recently popularized for un-/self-supervised representation learning [36,30,20,37,21,2,35,17,29,8,9]. Simple and effective instantiations of contrastive learning have been ...
