14 results for Bag-of-Features

Feature learning and deep learning have drawn great attention in recent years as a way of transforming input data into more effective representations using learning algorithms. Such interest has grown in the area of music information retrieval (MIR) as well, particularly in music audio classification tasks such as auto…

BagNet classifies images using local features, making decisions clearer and more understandable.

problem Understanding how deep neural networks make decisions is difficult.
method BagNet is a variant of ResNet-50 that classifies images based on local features without spatial ordering.
result BagNet achieves high accuracy on ImageNet (87.6% top-5 for 33 x 33 px features).

This paper presents a spermwhale' localization architecture using jointly a bag-of-features (BoF) approach and machine learning framework. BoF methods are known, especially in computer vision, to produce from a collection of local features a global representation invariant to principal signal transformations. Our idea …

In multiple instance learning, objects are sets (bags) of feature vectors (instances) rather than individual feature vectors. In this paper we address the problem of how these bags can best be represented. Two standard approaches are to use (dis)similarities between bags and prototype bags, or between bags and prototyp…

Many objects in the real world are difficult to describe by a single numerical vector of a fixed length, whereas describing them by a set of vectors is more natural. Therefore, Multiple instance learning (MIL) techniques have been constantly gaining on importance throughout last years. MIL formalism represents each obj…

In this paper, we deal with two challenges for measuring the similarity of the subject identities in practical video-based face recognition - the variation of the head pose in uncontrolled environments and the computational expense of processing videos. Since the frame-wise feature mean is unable to characterize the po…

This work efficiently learns linear threshold functions from label proportions using Gaussian distributions.

problem Efficiently learning linear threshold functions from label proportions.
method Using Gaussian distributions, the algorithm estimates means and covariance matrices, and identifies a low error hypothesis LTF.
result It is possible to efficiently learn LTFs using LTFs when given access to random bags of label proportions.

New method preserves privacy by aggregating feature-vectors with weighted sums, ensuring label differential privacy.

problem Ensuring privacy in training data aggregation for sensitive labels.
method Learning from bag aggregates (LBA) with weighted Gaussian sums, preserving label differential privacy (label-DP).
result Weighted LBA using iid Gaussian weights with mm randomly sampled disjoint kk-sized bags provides (ε,δ)(\varepsilon, δ)-label-DP.

Boosting weak learners to strong ones from aggregate labels is possible for LLP but not for MIL.

problem Boosting weak learners to strong ones from aggregate labels in learning from label proportions (LLP).
method Using a weak learner on large enough bags to obtain a strong learner for small bags in polynomial time.
result Boosting is possible for LLP but not for MIL.
