LatentCLR: A Contrastive Learning Approach for Unsupervised Discovery of Interpretable Directions
A framework that learns meaningful directions in GANs' latent space using unsupervised contrastive learning. Instead of discovering fixed directions such as in previous work, this method can discover non-linear directions in pretrained StyleGAN2 and BigGAN models. The discovered directions may be used for image manipulation.
Authors use the differences caused by an edit operation on the feature activations to optimize the identifiability of each direction. The edit operations are modeled by several separate neural nets

Authors use the differences caused by an edit operation on the feature activations to optimize the identifiability of each direction. The edit operations are modeled by several separate neural nets
β_i(z)
and learning. Given a latent code z
and its generated image x = G(z)
, we seek to find edit operations β_i(z)
such that the image x' = G(β_i(z))
has semantically meaningful changes over x
while still preserving the identity of x

Generating Furry Cars: Disentangling Object Shape and Appearance across Multiple Domains
This is an interesting paper about learning and combining representations of object shape and appearance from the different domains (for example, dogs and cars). This allows to create a model, which borrows different properties from each domain and generates images, which don't exist in a single domain.
The main idea is the following:
- use FineGAN as a base model;
- represent object appearance with a differentiable histogram of visual features;
- optimize the generator so that images with different shapes but similar appearances produce similar histograms;

Self-supervision paper from arxiv for histopathology CV.
Authors draw inspiration from the process of how histopathologists tend to review the images, and how those images are stored. Histopathology images are multiscale slices of enormous size (tens of thousands pixels by one side), and area experts constantly move through different levels of magnification to keep in mind both fine and coarse structures of the tissue.
Therefore, in this paper the loss is proposed to capture relation between different magnification levels. Authors propose to train network to order concentric patches by their magnification level. They organise it as the classification task β network to predict id of the order permutation instead of predicting order itself.
Also, authors proposed specific architecture for this task and appended self-training procedure, as it was shown to boost results even after pre-training.
All this allows them to reach quality increase even in high-data regime.
My description of the architecture and loss expanded here.

Researchers from Berkeley rolled out VideoGPT - a transformer that generates videos.
The results are not super "WOW", but the architecture is quite simple and now it can be a starting point for all future work in this direction. As you know, GPT-3 for text generation was also not built right away. So let's will wait for method acceleration and quality improvement.
