Circle Loss: A Unified Perspective of Pair Similarity Optimization
Circle Loss: A Unified Perspective of Pair Similarity Optimization
This paper provides a pair similarity optimization viewpoint on deep feature learning, aiming to maximize the within-class similarity $s_p$ and minimize the between-class similarity $s_n$. We find a majority of loss functions, including the triplet loss and the softmax cross-entropy loss, embed $s_n$ and $s_p$ into similarity pairs and seek …
