Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Evaluate only the top-k most disentangled dimensions per factor instead of the full representation (ablation) | BYOL · dSprites | MED: 31.3 (0.4) -> 53.7 (0.7) | Helped |
| Evaluate only the top-k most disentangled dimensions per factor instead of the full representation (ablation) | BYOL · Cars3D | MED: 9.7 (0.5) -> 31.8 (1.3) | Helped |
| Increase representation dimension (ablation) | BYOL · dSprites | MED and Top-2 MED | Helped |
| Increase representation dimension (ablation) | VAE-based methods · dSprites | MED and Top-k MED | Hurt |
| Use negative-free contrastive learning rather than the strongest listed low-dimensional generative baseline | contrastive methods · Shapes3D | MED | Hurt |
| Use negative-free contrastive learning rather than the strongest listed low-dimensional generative baseline | contrastive methods · Cars3D | MED | Hurt |
| Use negative-free contrastive learning rather than the strongest listed low-dimensional generative baseline | contrastive methods · SmallNORB | MED | Hurt |
| Use negative-free contrastive learning rather than the strongest listed low-dimensional generative baseline | contrastive methods · CelebA | MED | Helped |
| Extract a selected subspace from high-dimensional contrastive representations instead of requiring the full representation to be disentangled | negative-free contrastive methods · synthetic datasets and CelebA | Top-k MED | Helped |
| Evaluate a 1000-d BYOL representation with MED rather than DCI using Gradient Boosting Tree | BYOL on Cars3D · Cars3D | evaluation time: more than 14 hours -> less than 20 seconds | Helped |
| Use existing disentanglement metrics on high-dimensional representations rather than MED | high-dimensional BYOL · SmallNORB | disentanglement measurement agreement | Hurt |
