Semi-supervised clustering is an very important topic in machine learning and computer vision. The key challenge of this problem is how to learn a metric, such that the instances sharing the same label are more likely close to each other on…

Metric learning aims to learn a distance metric such that semantically similar instances are pulled together while dissimilar instances are pushed away. Many existing methods consider maximizing or at least constraining a distance margin in…

Adversarial attacks and defenses are currently active areas of research for the deep learning community. A recent review paper divided the defense approaches into three categories; gradient masking, robust optimization, and adversarial…
