Metric learning approaches\, which learn the employed me tric in a supervised way\, have been proposed to increase performance on t asks such as clustering. In particular\, they have shown great generalizat ion performance to compare objects from categories that were not seen duri ng training (for instance in face verification or few-shot learning). In t his talk\, I will talk about different shallow and deep metric learning ap proaches optimized for clustering and reducing model complexity. In the cl ustering task\, I will present efficient approaches to learn a metric in a supervised or weakly supervised way. In the model complexity context\, I will present approaches to limit the rank of shallow approaches\, or reduc e the dimensionality of a pretrained deep neural network to perform visual ization or increase zero-shot learning performance.\n DTSTART:20180220T160000Z DTEND:20180220T170000Z LOCATION:Room PCM Z240\, CA\, Laboratoire d'informatique des systemes adapt atifs SUMMARY:Marc Law\, University of Toronto URL:/mathstat/channels/event/marc-law-university-toron to-285186 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
