The margin-based softmax loss functions greatly enhance intra-class compactness and perform well on the tasks of face recognition and object classification. Outperformance, however, depends on the careful hyperparameter selection. Moreover, the hard angle restriction also increases the risk of overfitting. In this pape…

This paper refines MMD for domain adaptation by balancing intra-class and inter-class distances.
This paper proposes a novel generic one-class feature learning method based on intra-class splitting. In one-class classification, feature learning is challenging, because only samples of one class are available during training. Hence, state-of-the-art methods require reference multi-class datasets to pretrain feature …
We introduce a conditional generative model for learning to disentangle the hidden factors of variation within a set of labeled observations, and separate them into complementary codes. One code summarizes the specified factors of variation associated with the labels. The other summarizes the remaining unspecified vari…
The high dimensionality of hyperspectral images often results in the degradation of clustering performance. Due to the powerful ability of deep feature extraction and non-linear feature representation, the clustering algorithm based on deep learning has become a hot research topic in the field of hyperspectral remote s…
Blind source separation is a common processing tool to analyse the constitution of pixels of hyperspectral images. Such methods usually suppose that pure pixel spectra (endmembers) are the same in all the image for each class of materials. In the framework of remote sensing, such an assumption is no more valid in the p…
Person re-identification (Re-ID) aims at matching images of the same person across disjoint camera views, which is a challenging problem in multimedia analysis, multimedia editing and content-based media retrieval communities. The major challenge lies in how to preserve similarity of the same person across video footag…
Deep neural networks suffer from over-fitting and catastrophic forgetting when trained with small data. One natural remedy for this problem is data augmentation, which has been recently shown to be effective. However, previous works either assume that intra-class variances can always be generalized to new classes, or e…
In this paper, we focus on the separability of classes with the cross-entropy loss function for classification problems by theoretically analyzing the intra-class distance and inter-class distance (i.e. the distance between any two points belonging to the same class and different classes, respectively) in the feature s…

New method prevents class collapse in metric learning with margin-based losses.
Inner product-based convolution has been a central component of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and the key to learning visual representations. Inspired by the observation that CNN-learned features are naturally decoupled with the norm of features corresponding to the intra-class variation and the angle correspond…
This paper proposes a method to use deep neural networks as end-to-end open-set classifiers. It is based on intra-class data splitting. In open-set recognition, only samples from a limited number of known classes are available for training. During inference, an open-set classifier must reject samples from unknown class…

Deep neural networks trained using a softmax layer at the top and the cross-entropy loss are ubiquitous tools for image classification.

Learning a single dictionary matrix with a classifier yields a higher classification accuracy than AlexNet over the ImageNet 2012 dataset. The netwo…

Cross-entropy loss together with softmax is arguably one of the most common used supervision components in convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Despite its simplicity, popularity and excellent performance, the component does not explicitly encourage discriminative learning of features. In this paper, we propose a gene…
