Learning Diverse and Discriminative Representations via the Principle of Maximal Coding Rate Reduction

This repository is the official implementation of Learning Diverse and Discriminative Representations via the Principle of Maximal Coding Rate Reduction (2020) by Yaodong Yu* (UC Berkeley), Kwan Ho Ryan Chan* (UC Berkeley), Chong You (UC Berkeley), Chaobing Song (UC Berkeley) and Yi Ma (UC Berkeley).

What is Maxmial Coding Rate Reduction?

Our goal is to learn a mapping that maps the high-dimensional data that lies in a low-dimensional manifold to low-dimensional subspaces with the following three properties:


  1. Between-Class Discriminative: Features of samples from different classes/clusters should be highly uncorrelatedand belong to different low-dimensional linear subspaces
  2. Within-Class Compressible: Features of samples from the same class/cluster should be relatively correlated in a sense that they belong to a low-dimensional linear subspace
  3. Maximally Diverse Representation: Dimension (or variance) of features for each class/cluster should beas large as possibleas long as they stay uncorrelated from the other classes

To achieve this, we propose an objective function called Maximal Coding Rate Reduction (MCR2). In our paper, we provide not only theoretical guarantees to the desired properties upon convergence, but also practical properties such as robustness to label corruption and empirical results such as state-of-the-art unsupervised clustering performance. For more details on algorithm design, please refer to our paper.

Requirements

  • This codebase is written for python3.
  • To install necessary python packages, run pip install -r requirements.txt.

Training

Basics

  • All functions used in training can be found in train_func.py, which includes: load_checkpoint(...), load_trainset(...), etc. For implementation details please refer to docstring.
  • Code for training are in the following files: train_sup.py and train_selfsup.py. Each has its own command options.
  • Augmentations is used in unsupervised and contrastive setting. Check augmentloader.py for implementation details.
