Abstract
The goal of the unsupervised learning of disentangled representations is to
separate the independent explanatory factors of variation in the data without
access to supervision. In this paper, we summarize the results of Locatello et
al., 2019, and focus on their implications for practitioners. We discuss the
theoretical result showing that the unsupervised learning of disentangled
representations is fundamentally impossible without inductive biases and the
practical challenges it entails. Finally, we comment on our experimental
findings, highlighting the limitations of state-of-the-art approaches and
directions for future research.
