Learning State-Invariant Representations of Objects from Image Collections with State, Pose, and Viewpoint Changes

arXiv:2404.06470v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: We add one more invariance - state invariance - to the more commonly used other invariances for learning object representations for recognition and retrieval. By state invariance, we mean robust with respect to changes in the structural form of the object, such as when an umbrella is folded, or when an item of clothing is tossed on the floor. Since humans generally have no difficulty in recognizing objects despite such state changes, we are naturally …
