• Abstract summary: We propose a novel method to combine multiple Variational AutoEncoders with a Factor Analysis latent space. We create an interpretable hierarchical dependency between private and shared information. This way, the novel model is able to simultaneously: (i) learn from multiple heterogeneous views, (ii) obtain an interpretable hierarchical shared space, and (iii) perform transfer learning between generative models.

• Abstract: Real-world databases are complex, they usually present redundancy and shared correlations between heterogeneous and multiple representations of the same data. Thus, exploiting and disentangling shared information between views is critical. For this purpose, recent studies often fuse all views into a shared nonlinear complex latent space but they lose the interpretability. To overcome this limitation, here we propose a novel method to combine multiple Variational AutoEncoders (VAE) architectures with a Factor Analysis latent space (FA-VAE). Concretely, we use a VAE to learn a private representation of each heterogeneous view in a continuous latent space. Then, we model the shared latent space by projecting every private variable to a low-dimensional latent space using a linear projection matrix. Thus, we create an interpretable hierarchical dependency between private and shared information. This way, the novel model is able to simultaneously: (i) learn from multiple heterogeneous views, (ii) obtain an interpretable hierarchical shared space, and, (iii) perform transfer learning between generative models.

  Deep generative models have demonstrated successful applications in learning non-linear data distributions through a number of latent variables. The nonlinearity of the generator implies that the latent space shows an unsatisfactory projection of the data space, which results in poor representation learning. We show that geodesics and accurate computation can substantially improve the performance of deep generative models.
