• Abstract: In this paper, we study a new representation-learning task, which we termed as disassembling object representations. Given an image featuring multiple objects, the goal of disassembling is to acquire a latent representation, of which each part corresponds to one category of objects. Disassembling thus finds its application in a wide domain such as image editing and few- or zero-shot learning, as it enables category-specific modularity in the learned representations. To this end, we propose an unsupervised approach to achieving disassembling, named Unsupervised Disassembling Object Representation (UDOR). UDOR follows a double auto-encoder architecture, in which a fuzzy classification and an object-removing operation are imposed. The fuzzy classification constrains each part of the latent representation to encode features of up to one object category, while the object-removing, combined with a generative adversarial network, enforces the modularity of the representations and integrity of the reconstructed image. Furthermore, we devise two metrics to respectively measure the modularity of disassembled representations and the visual integrity of reconstructed images. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed UDOR, despited unsupervised, achieves truly encouraging results on par with those of supervised methods.

  We present a hierarchical abstraction approach to uncover underlying entities. We show how to learn a correspondence between intervening on states of entities in the agent's model and acting on objects in the environment. We use this correspondence to develop a method for control that generalizes to different numbers and configurations of objects.

  We show that self-supervised representations based on the instance discrimination objective lead to better representations of objects that are more robust to changes in the viewpoint and perspective of the object. We find that self-supervised representations are more robust to object viewpoint and appear to encode more pertinent information about objects that facilitate the recognition of objects from novel views.

We show that this simple and efficient approach achieves better reconstruction performance than an equivalent real-valued autoencoder on simple multi-object datasets. We also show that it achieves competitive unsupervised object discovery performance to a SlotAttention model on two datasets, and manages to disentangle objects in a third dataset where SlotAttention fails - all while being 7-70 times faster to train.
