Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| replace image-space SE/l1 loss with DeePSiM feature-plus-adversarial loss for autoencoder training | autoencoder on STL-10 · STL-10 reconstruction | normalized Euclidean reconstruction error: 15.3 -> 19.8/21.5 | Hurt |
| use DeePSiM loss (Exemplar-CNN or AlexNet features) instead of SE/l1 for autoencoder features | autoencoder hidden representation used for linear SVM · STL-10 classification | classification accuracy: 34.6 -> 50.1 (Exemplar-CNN), 52.3 (AlexNet) | Helped |
| use AlexNet conv3 comparator instead of Exemplar-CNN conv3 for autoencoder loss (ablation) | DeePSiM autoencoder · STL-10 reconstruction | normalized Euclidean reconstruction error: 19.8 -> 21.5 | Hurt |
| ablate image-space loss, adversarial loss, and feature loss in feature inversion of FC6 (ablation) | DeePSiM AlexNet inversion · ILSVRC-2012 validation FC6 inversion | visual quality | No clear effect |
| add adversarial loss to feature-space loss (ablation) | feature inversion of AlexNet · ILSVRC-2012 validation FC6 inversion | qualitative image realism | Helped |
| use random-weight AlexNet or VideoNet conv5 instead of AlexNet conv5 as comparator (ablation) | DeePSiM inversion of FC6 · ILSVRC-2012 validation FC6 inversion | qualitative reconstruction quality | Hurt |
| use discriminator features as comparator instead of AlexNet conv5 (ablation) | DeePSiM inversion · ILSVRC-2012 validation | qualitative reconstruction quality | Hurt |
| add adversarial loss (natural image prior) to VAE trained with feature loss instead of SE | variational autoencoder on ILSVRC-2012 · VAE samples | qualitative realism of samples | Helped |
| use feature-space loss with the comparator instead of image-space loss for autoencoder/inversion | DeePSiM · Iterative re-encoding of AlexNet features | feature preservation over iterations | Helped |
| Adding a generator input noise to produce multiple pre-images per feature (ablation) | DeePSiM feature inversion · sampling pre-images | diversity of reconstructions | No clear effect |
