Categorical Mixture Models on VGGNet activations
In this project, I use unsupervised learning techniques in order to cluster a set of yelp restaurant photos under meaningful topics. In order to do this, I extract layer activations from a pre-trained implementation of the popular VGGNet convolutional neural network. First, I explore using LDA with the activations of convolutional layers as features. Secondly, I explore using the object-recognition powers of VGGNet trained on ImageNet in order to extract meaningful objects from the photos, and then perform LDA to group the photos under topic-archetypes. I find that this second approach finds meaningful archetypes, which match the human intuition for photo topics such as restaurant, food, and drinks. Furthermore, these clusters align well and distinctly with the actual yelp photo labels.
