In recent years, we have witnessed a surge of interests in learning a suitable distance metric from weakly supervised data. Most existing methods aim to pull all the similar samples closer while push the dissimilar ones as far as possible. However, when some classes of the dataset exhibit multimodal distribution, these goals conflict and thus can hardly be concurrently satisfied. Additionally, to ensure a valid metric, many methods require a repeated eigenvalue decomposition process, which is expensive and numerically unstable. Therefore, how to learn an appropriate distance metric from weakly supervised data remains an open but challenging problem. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a novel weakly supervised metric learning algorithm, named MultimoDal Aware weakly supervised Metric Learning (MDaML). MDaML partitions the data space into several clusters and allocates the local cluster centers and weight for each sample. Then, combining it with the weighted triplet loss can further enhance the local separability, which encourages the local dissimilar samples to keep a large distance from the local similar samples. Meanwhile, MDaML casts the metric learning problem into an unconstrained optimization on the SPD manifold, which can be efficiently solved by Riemannian Conjugate Gradient Descent (RCGD). Extensive experiments conducted on 13 datasets validate the superiority of the proposed MDaML.
We address the problem of distance metric learning in visual similarity search, defined as learning an image embedding model which projects images into Euclidean space where semantically and visually similar images are closer and dissimilar images ar
Multimodal affect recognition constitutes an important aspect for enhancing interpersonal relationships in human-computer interaction. However, relevant data is hard to come by and notably costly to annotate, which poses a challenging barrier to buil
We present a novel hierarchical triplet loss (HTL) capable of automatically collecting informative training samples (triplets) via a defined hierarchical tree that encodes global context information. This allows us to cope with the main limitation of
We propose a novel theoretical framework to understand contrastive self-supervised learning (SSL) methods that employ dual pairs of deep ReLU networks (e.g., SimCLR). First, we prove that in each SGD update of SimCLR with various loss functions, incl
Compared with tedious per-pixel mask annotating, it is much easier to annotate data by clicks, which costs only several seconds for an image. However, applying clicks to learn video semantic segmentation model has not been explored before. In this wo
