Learning by coincidence: Siamese networks and common variable learning

作者:

Highlights:

• Siamese networks are proposed for unsupervised learning of a common source of variability in multimodal data.

• The common source of variability is identified using coincidence and concurrence of measurements in different modalities.

• The functionality of Siamese networks is interpreted as trying to learn equivalence classes associated with a common source of variability present in different modalities.
