BNM

code release for "Towards Discriminability and Diversity: Batch Nuclear-norm Maximization under Label Insufficient Situations" ( CVPR2020 oral)

One-sentence description

We prove in the paper that Batch Nuclear-norm Maximization (BNM) could ensure the prediction discriminability and diversity, which is an effective method under label insufficient situations.

Application

One line code under Pytorch and Tensorflow

Assume X is the prediction matrix. We could calculate BNM loss in both Pytorch and Tensorflow, as follows:

-Pytorch

1. Direct calculation (Since there remains direct approach for nuclear-norm)

L_BNM = -torch.norm(X,'nuc')

2. Calculation by SVD

L_BNM = -torch.sum(torch.svd(X, compute_uv=False)[1])

-Tensorflow

L_BNM = -tf.reduce_sum(tf.svd(X, compute_uv=False))

Tasks

We apply BNM to domain adaptation (DA) in DA, unsupervised open domain recognition (UODR) in UODR and semi-supervised learning (SSL) in SSL.

Training instructions for DA, UODR and SSL are in the README.md in DA, UODR and SSL respectively.
