Universal representations:The missing link between faces, text, planktons, and cat breeds

25 Jan 2017  ·  Hakan Bilen, Andrea Vedaldi ·

With the advent of large labelled datasets and high-capacity models, the performance of machine vision systems has been improving rapidly. However, the technology has still major limitations, starting from the fact that different vision problems are still solved by different models, trained from scratch or fine-tuned on the target data. The human visual system, in stark contrast, learns a universal representation for vision in the early life of an individual. This representation works well for an enormous variety of vision problems, with little or no change, with the major advantage of requiring little training data to solve any of them.
