Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A computer-implemented method for learning an autoencoder notably is provided. The method includes obtaining a dataset of images. Each image includes a respective object representation. The method also includes learning the autoencoder based on the dataset. The learning includes minimization of a reconstruction loss. The reconstruction loss includes a term that penalizes a distance for each respective image. The penalized distance is between the result of applying the autoencoder to the respective image and the set of results of applying at least part of a group of transformations to the object representation of the respective image. Such a method provides an improved solution to learn an autoencoder.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A computer-implemented method for learning an autoencoder, the method comprising: obtaining a dataset of images, each image including a respective object representation, wherein the object representations are each a representation of an instance of a same class of objects; and learning the autoencoder (g W′ ∘f W ) based on the dataset, the learning including minimization of a reconstruction loss (E(W,W′)), the reconstruction loss including a term ( ∑ i = 1 n inf h ∈ 𝒢 ⁢ d ⁡ ( g W ′ ∘ f W ( x i ) , h ∘ x i ) , ∑ i = 1 n inf h ∈ 𝒢 ( d ⁡ ( g W ′ ∘ f W ( x i ) , h ∘ x i ) + ρ ⁡ ( h ) ) , ∑ i = 1 n inf h ∈ 𝒢 ⁢ d ⁡ ( g W ′ ∘ f W ( x i _ ) , h ∘ x i ) ) that penalizes for each respective image (x i ) a distance ( d q ( g W ′ ∘ f W ( x i ) , x i _ ) = inf h ∈ 𝒢 ⁢ d ⁡ ( g W ′ ∘ f W
