Self-supervised Object Discovery

We extend our interest in self-supervised learning that we have developed in human activity discovery. In this research, we aim to develop an ability in intelligent systems to be able to distinguish one object from another object, or to discover different objects in its environment without being trained in supervised manner, i.e. without the labels.


Application of Convolutional Autoencoder in Object Discovery

This is Azri’s BSc final year project. Azri applied the Convolutional Autoencoder to train a model to encode the images of a set of objects to facilitate the clustering of the images into different objects. We are starting our work in this area with simple datasets of digits (MNIST) and alphabets (A-Z). We investigated the effectiveness of a few different feature extraction techniques and different clustering algorithms in object discovery.
