Abstract
We propose a meta-parameter free, off-the-shelf, simple and fast unsupervised feature learning algorithm, which exploits a new way of optimizing for sparsity. Experiments on CIFAR-10, STL-10 and UCMerced show that the method achieves the state-of-the-art performance, providing discriminative features that generalize well.
