Abstract
To conclude, we interpret the internal representation of the model and use it to perform unsupervised scene discovery. Defining a meaningful vocabulary for scene discovery is a challenging problem that has important consequences for object recognition. We consider scenes to depict correlated objects and present visual similarity. We postulate that the internal representation space of our model should allow us to discover a large number of scenes in unsupervised data; we show scene discrimination results on par with supervised approaches even without explicitly labeling scenes, producing highly plausible scene clusters.
