Angular Margin-Based Softmax Losses: Toward Discriminative Deep Metric Learning
147 p. Discriminative deep metric learning aims to construct an embedding space in whichinstances of the same class can be grouped together while being effectivelydistinguished from instances belonging to other classes by deeply learnedrepresentations. In this context, angular deep metric learning e...
