Triplet loss is an extremely common approach to distance metric learning. Representations of images from the same class are optimized to be mapped closer together in an embedding space than representations of images from different classes. Much work on triplet losses focuses on selecting the most useful triplets of images to consider, with strategies that select dissimilar examples from the same class or similar examples from different classes. The consensus of previous research is that optimizing with the textit{hardest} negative examples leads to bad training behavior. Thats a problem -- these hardest negatives are literally the cases where the distance metric fails to capture semantic similarity. In this paper, we characterize the space of triplets and derive why hard negatives make triplet loss training fail. We offer a simple fix to the loss function and show that, with this fix, optimizing with hard negative examples becomes feasible. This leads to more generalizable features, and image retrieval results that outperform state of the art for datasets with high intra-class variance.

Deep learning has come a long way and has enjoyed an unprecedented success. Despite high accuracy, however, deep models are brittle and are easily fooled by imperceptible adversarial perturbations. In contrast to common inference-time attacks, Backdo
or (aka Trojan) attacks target the training phase of model construction, and are extremely difficult to combat since a) the model behaves normally on a pristine testing set and b) the augmented perturbations can be minute and may only affect few training samples. Here, I propose a new method to tell whether a model has been subject to a backdoor attack. The idea is to generate adversarial examples, targeted or untargeted, using conventional attacks such as FGSM and then feed them back to the classifier. By computing the statistics (here simply mean maps) of the images in different categories and comparing them with the statistics of a reference model, it is possible to visually locate the perturbed regions and unveil the attack.
Acquiring large-scale medical image data, necessary for training machine learning algorithms, is frequently intractable, due to prohibitive expert-driven annotation costs. Recent datasets extracted from hospital archives, e.g., DeepLesion, have begun
to address this problem. However, these are often incompletely or noisily labeled, e.g., DeepLesion leaves over 50% of its lesions unlabeled. Thus, effective methods to harvest missing annotations are critical for continued progress in medical image analysis. This is the goal of our work, where we develop a powerful system to harvest missing lesions from the DeepLesion dataset at high precision. Accepting the need for some degree of expert labor to achieve high fidelity, we exploit a small fully-labeled subset of medical image volumes and use it to intelligently mine annotations from the remainder. To do this, we chain together a highly sensitive lesion proposal generator and a very selective lesion proposal classifier. While our framework is generic, we optimize our performance by proposing a 3D contextual lesion proposal generator and by using a multi-view multi-scale lesion proposal classifier. These produce harvested and hard-negative proposals, which we then re-use to finetune our proposal generator by using a novel hard negative suppression loss, continuing this process until no extra lesions are found. Extensive experimental analysis demonstrates that our method can harvest an additional 9,805 lesions while keeping precision above 90%. To demonstrate the benefits of our approach, we show that lesion detectors trained on our harvested lesions can significantly outperform the same variants only trained on the original annotations, with boost of average precision of 7% to 10%. We open source our annotations at https://github.com/JimmyCai91/DeepLesionAnnotation.
Deep metric learning has been effectively used to learn distance metrics for different visual tasks like image retrieval, clustering, etc. In order to aid the training process, existing methods either use a hard mining strategy to extract the most in
formative samples or seek to generate hard synthetics using an additional network. Such approaches face different challenges and can lead to biased embeddings in the former case, and (i) harder optimization (ii) slower training speed (iii) higher model complexity in the latter case. In order to overcome these challenges, we propose a novel approach that looks for optimal hard negatives (LoOp) in the embedding space, taking full advantage of each tuple by calculating the minimum distance between a pair of positives and a pair of negatives. Unlike mining-based methods, our approach considers the entire space between pairs of embeddings to calculate the optimal hard negatives. Extensive experiments combining our approach and representative metric learning losses reveal a significant boost in performance on three benchmark datasets.
Stacking is a widely used model averaging technique that asymptotically yields optimal predictions among linear averages. We show that stacking is most effective when model predictive performance is heterogeneous in inputs, and we can further improve
the stacked mixture with a hierarchical model. We generalize stacking to Bayesian hierarchical stacking. The model weights are varying as a function of data, partially-pooled, and inferred using Bayesian inference. We further incorporate discrete and continuous inputs, other structured priors, and time series and longitudinal data. To verify the performance gain of the proposed method, we derive theory bounds, and demonstrate on several applied problems.
Self-supervised pre-training (SSP) employs random image transformations to generate training data for visual representation learning. In this paper, we first present a modeling framework that unifies existing SSP methods as learning to predict pseudo
-labels. Then, we propose new data augmentation methods of generating training examples whose pseudo-labels are harder to predict than those generated via random image transformations. Specifically, we use adversarial training and CutMix to create hard examples (HEXA) to be used as augmented views for MoCo-v2 and DeepCluster-v2, leading to two variants HEXA_{MoCo} and HEXA_{DCluster}, respectively. In our experiments, we pre-train models on ImageNet and evaluate them on multiple public benchmarks. Our evaluation shows that the two new algorithm variants outperform their original counterparts, and achieve new state-of-the-art on a wide range of tasks where limited task supervision is available for fine-tuning. These results verify that hard examples are instrumental in improving the generalization of the pre-trained models.
