Abstract

Despite overwhelming achievements in recognition accuracy, extending an open-set capability -- ability to identify when the question is out of scope -- remains greatly challenging in a scalable machine learning inference. A recent research has discovered Latent Cognizance (LC) -- an insight on a recognition mechanism based on a new probabilistic interpretation, Bayesian theorem, and an analysis of an internal structure of a commonly-used recognition inference structure. The new interpretation emphasizes a latent assumption of an overlooked probabilistic condition on a learned inference model. Viability of LC has been shown on a task of sign language recognition, but its potential and implication can reach far beyond a specific domain and can move object recognition toward a scalable open-set recognition. However, LC new probabilistic interpretation has not been directly investigated. This article investigates the new interpretation under a traceable context. Our findings support the rationale on which LC is based and reveal a hidden mechanism underlying the learning classification inference. The ramification of these findings could lead to a simple yet effective solution to an open-set recognition.
