Abstract

We made a self-supervised model with a pretext-task based on geometric transformations. Our model is based on RotNet, a model that predicts image rotations by Gidaris et al. [GSK18]. We implemented our model in TensorFlow, and were able to reproduce their results for rotation. The rotation model cannot be used for all datasets, for example datasets with a lot of top-down images or images of round objects. Therefore, we modified our network to predict the scale of an image. In order for our scale model to work, the used dataset needs to have a defined scale, that is, all images are taken from the same distance. We see the patterns that show the pretext task learns some useful features. However, we also see that for most experiments the gap with supervised is bigger for our scale model than for our rotation model. Most promising is that our scale model closes the gap with supervised learning during our experiment with a low amount of labelled data.
