Deep unsupervised learning of visual similarities

作者:

Highlights:

• Unsupervised visual similarity learning is framed as a surrogate classification task.

• Use weak estimates of local similarities to group samples into compact cliques.

• Train a ConvNet to learn visual similarities by learning to categorize cliques.

• Optimization problem to sample training minibatches without conflicting relations.

• Competitive performance on detailed posture analysis and object classification.
