Therefore, semantic embedding space learning plays an important role in zero-shot recognition. Among existing works, semantic embedding space is mainly taken by user-defined attribute vectors. However, the discriminative information included in the user-defined attribute vector is limited. In this paper, we propose to learn an extra latent attribute space automatically to produce a more generalized and discriminative semantic embedded space. To prevent the bias problem, both user-defined attribute vector and latent attribute space are optimized by adversarial learning with auto-encoders. We also propose to reconstruct semantic patterns produced by explanatory graphs, which can make semantic embedding space more sensitive to usefully semantic information and less sensitive to useless information.
