Full textAnsiktsuttryck spelar en viktig roll i områden som mänsklig kommunikation eller vid utvärdering av medicinska tillstånd. För att tillämpa maskininlärning i dessa områden skulle det vara fördelaktigt att ha en representation av ansiktsuttryck som bevarar människors uppfattning av likhet. I det här arbetet används ett data-drivet angreppssätt till representationsinlärning av ansiktsuttryck. Metodologin bygger på s. k. Variational Autoencoders och eliminerar utseende-relaterade drag från den latenta rymden genom att använda neutrala ansiktsuttryck som extra input-data. För att förbättra kvaliteten på den inlärda representationen så modifierar vi a priori-distributionen för den latenta variabeln för att ålägga den struktur på den latenta rymden som är överensstämmande med mänsklig perception av ansiktsuttryck. Vi utför experiment på två dataset och även insamlad likhets-data och visar att den människolika topologin i den latenta representationen hjälper till att förbättra prestandan på en typisk emotionsklassificeringsuppgift samt fördelarna med att använda en probabilistisk generativ modell när man undersöker latenta dimensioners roll i den generativa processen.

One of the great puzzles of vision science is how, over the course of development, the complex visual array comprising many regions of different colors and luminances is transformed into a sophisticated and meaningful constellation of objects. Gestaltists describe some of the rules that seem to govern a mature parsing of the visual scene, but where do these rules come from? Are they innate--endowed by evolution, or do they come somehow from visual experience? The answer to this question is usually confounded in infant studies as the timelines of maturation and experience are inextricably linked. Here, we describe studies with a special population of late--onset vision patients, which suggest a distinction between those capabilities available innately and those which are crafted via learning from the visual environment. We conclude with a hypothesis, based on these findings and other evidence, that early-available common fate motion cues provide a level of perceptual organization which forms the basis for the learning of subsequent cues.

This thesis presents a self-supervised framework for perceptual and motor learning based upon correlations in different sensory modalities. The brain and cognitive sciences have gathered an enormous body of neurological and phenomenological evidence in the past half century demonstrating the extraordinary degree of interaction between sensory modalities during the course of ordinary perception. We develop a framework for creating artificial perceptual systems that draws on these findings, where the primary architectural motif is the cross-modal transmission of perceptual information to enhance each sensory channel individually. We present self-supervised algorithms for learning perceptual grounding, intersensory influence, and sensorymotor coordination, which derive training signals from internal cross-modal correlations rather than from external supervision. Our goal is to create systems that develop by interacting with the world around them, inspired by development in animals. We demonstrate this framework with: (1) a system that learns the number and structure of vowels in American English by simultaneously watching and listening to someone speak. The system then cross-modally clusters the correlated auditory and visual data.
(cont.) It has no advance linguistic knowledge and receives no information outside of its sensory channels. This work is the first unsupervised acquisition of phonetic structure of which we are aware, outside of that done by human infants. (2) a system that learns to sing like a zebra finch, following the developmental stages of a juvenile zebra finch. It first learns the song of an adult male and then listens to its own initially nascent attempts at mimicry through an articulatory synthesizer. In acquiring the birdsong to which it was initially exposed, this system demonstrates self-supervised sensorimotor learning. It also demonstrates afferent and efferent equivalence - the system learns motor maps with the same computational framework used for learning sensory maps.

This dissertation examines the predictions of two computational models of grammar within the domain of loanword phonology. These models, formulated within a Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) framework, have been shown to be successful when simulating the effects that a substantive bias such as the Perceptual Map (PMap) hypothesis of Steriade (2001) may have on a phonological learner. While previous studies have focused primarily on modelling data taken from artificial grammar learning experiments (Wilson, 2006; White, 2013), this dissertation will instead model loanword adaptation. Loanword adaptation was chosen as a useful test domain as speakers will often choose to repair phonotactically-illicit loanwords in ways that are not attested in their native grammar. It thus provides a wealth of data about how speakers structure their grammar in the absence of overt phonological evidence. To this end, a case study of English loanword adaptation in Cantonese is undertaken.
It will be shown that the patterns of consonant deletion and vowel epenthesis used by speakers of Cantonese to adapt English words are compatible with the PMap, and can be modelled through the MaxEnt learners mentioned above. It will also be shown through a series of computational simulations that Wilson's (2006) learner fails to acquire the grammar necessary to account for the patterns of loanword adaptation, while White's (2013) learner succeeds. This is a result of the way in which the PMap is encoded within these learners. While both encode the PMap as a series of asymmetrical Gaussian distributions on the weights of constraints, Wilson (2006) encodes this asymmetry through the variances, or plasticities, of the distributions, while White (2013) encodes it through the means, or target weights. A grammar which encodes the PMap through asymmetrical plasticities must encounter evidence from the phonology of the language in order to alter the weights of constraints.
However, the loanword phonology of Cantonese crucially lacks such phonological evidence, and Wilson's (2006) model cannot make use of it when establishing constraint asymmetries. White's (2013) model, however, allows constraint asymmetries to be maintained in the absence of overt evidence, and results in more accurate grammars of Cantonese loanword adaptation.
