Orthogonal Dendritic Intrinsic Networks: An Architecture for Significance-Ordered, Orthogonal Latent Spaces
Jeanie Schreiber, Tyrus Berry, Zeeshan Ahmed
Principal Component Analysis or PCA-like properties (orthogonality, variance ranking) are seldom realized in deep autoencoder architectures. In this work, we present ODIN (Orthogonal Dendritic Intrinsic Network), a novel autoencoder architecture that recovers PCA-like latent stru…
