Query: Advocacy Learning: Learning through Competition and Class-Conditional
  Representations   We introduce advocacy learning, a novel supervised training scheme for
attention-based classification problems. Advocacy learning relies on a
framework consisting of two connected networks: 1) $N$ Advocates (one for each
class), each of which outputs an argument in the form of an attention map over
the input, and 2) a Judge, which predicts the class label based on these
arguments. Each Advocate produces a class-conditional representation with the
goal of convincing the Judge that the input example belongs to their class,
even when the input belongs to a different class. Applied to several different
classification tasks, we show that advocacy learning can lead to small
improvements in classification accuracy over an identical supervised baseline.
Though a series of follow-up experiments, we analyze when and how such
class-conditional representations improve discriminative performance. Though
somewhat counter-intuitive, a framework in which subnetworks are trained to
competitively provide evidence in support of their class shows promise, in many
cases performing on par with standard learning approaches. This provides a
foundation for further exploration into competition and class-conditional
representations in supervised learning.
