Active Visual Exploration Based on Attention-Map Entropy

Active visual exploration addresses the issue of limited sensor capabilities in real-world scenarios, where successive observations are actively chosen based on the environment. To tackle this problem, we introduce a new technique called Attention-Map Entropy (AME). It leverages the internal uncertainty of the transformer-based model to determine the most informative observations. In contrast to existing solutions, it does not require additional loss components, which simplifies the training. Through experiments, which also mimic retina-like sensors, we show that such simplified training significantly improves the performance of reconstruction, segmentation and classification on publicly available datasets.
