Yeah, ok, so you basically reinvented inverse-graphics analysis-as-synthesis, stuck DEEP NEURAL and the GOOGLE DEEPMIND(TM) brand on it, and now you're acting like it's the bee's knees.
I'm starting to understand how Juergen Schmidhuber feels.
- nthngnss 9y agoYou'd be surprised to see that both "inverse graphics" and "analysis-by-synthesis" are mentioned in the paper
- eli_gottlieb 9y agoYes, I saw that they are, but at that point, I'd have to ask where the novelty is besides transforming them from probabilistic problems to plain neural-network problems.
- nthngnss 9y agoI would call "inverse graphics" a task. One can solve that task following different strategies. We demonstrate one way that uses RL and GANs and gives reasonably good results. For Omniglot, for example, there are works by Lake et al. that employ probabilistic perspective but the amount of hand-engineering involved makes their approach hard to apply to other tasks
