Despite the effectiveness of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for image classification, our understanding of the relationship between shape of convolution kernels and learned representations is limited. In this work, we explore and employ the relationship between shape of kernels which define Receptive Fields (RFs) in CNNs for learning of feature representations and image classification. For this purpose, we first propose a feature visualization method for visualization of pixel-wise classification score maps of learned features. Motivated by our experimental results, and observations reported in the literature for modeling of visual systems, we propose a novel design of shape of kernels for learning of representations in CNNs. In the experimental results, we achieved a state-of-the-art classification performance compared to a base CNN model [28] by reducing the number of parameters and computational time of the model using the ILSVRC-2012 dataset [24]. The proposed models also outperform the state-of-the-art models employed on the CIFAR-10/100 datasets [12] for image classification. Additionally, we analyzed the robustness of the proposed method to occlusion for classification of partially occluded images compared with the state-of-the-art methods. Our results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The code is available in github.com/minogame/caffe-qhconv.

Deep convolutional neural networks have achieved remarkable success in computer vision. However, deep neural networks require large computing resources to achieve high performance. Although depthwise separable convolution can be an efficient module t o approximate a standard convolution, it often leads to reduced representational power of networks. In this paper, under budget constraints such as computational cost (MAdds) and the parameter count, we propose a novel basic architectural block, ANTBlock. It boosts the representational power by modeling, in a high dimensional space, interdependency of channels between a depthwise convolution layer and a projection layer in the ANTBlocks. Our experiments show that ANTNet built by a sequence of ANTBlocks, consistently outperforms state-of-the-art low-cost mobile convolutional neural networks across multiple datasets. On CIFAR100, our model achieves 75.7% top-1 accuracy, which is 1.5% higher than MobileNetV2 with 8.3% fewer parameters and 19.6% less computational cost. On ImageNet, our model achieves 72.8% top-1 accuracy, which is 0.8% improvement, with 157.7ms (20% faster) on iPhone 5s over MobileNetV2.

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art results on many visual recognition tasks. However, current CNN models still exhibit a poor ability to be invariant to spatial transformations of images. Intuitively, with sufficient layers and parameters, hierarchical combinations of convolution (matrix multiplication and non-linear activation) and pooling operations should be able to learn a robust mapping from transformed input images to transform-invariant representations. In this paper, we propose randomly transforming (rotation, scale, and translation) feature maps of CNNs during the training stage. This prevents complex dependencies of specific rotation, scale, and translation levels of training images in CNN models. Rather, each convolutional kernel learns to detect a feature that is generally helpful for producing the transform-invariant answer given the combinatorially large variety of transform levels of its input feature maps. In this way, we do not require any extra training supervision or modification to the optimization process and training images. We show that random transformation provides significant improvements of CNNs on many benchmark tasks, including small-scale image recognition, large-scale image recognition, and image retrieval.

The square kernel is a standard unit for contemporary Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), as it fits well on the tensor computation for the convolution operation. However, the receptive field in the human visual system is actually isotropic like a circle. Motivated by this observation, we propose using circle kernels with isotropic receptive fields for the convolution, and our training takes approximately equivalent amount of calculation when compared with the corresponding CNN with square kernels. Our preliminary experiments demonstrate the rationality of circle kernels. We then propose a kernel boosting strategy that integrates the circle kernels with square kernels for the training and inference, and we further let the kernel size/radius be learnable during the training. Note that we reparameterize the circle kernels or integrated kernels before the inference, thus taking no extra computation as well as the number of parameter overhead for the testing. Extensive experiments on several standard datasets, ImageNet, CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100, using the circle kernels or integrated kernels on typical existing CNNs, show that our approach exhibits highly competitive performance. Specifically, on ImageNet with standard data augmentation, our approach dramatically boosts the performance of MobileNetV3-Small by 5.20% top-1 accuracy and 3.39% top-5 accuracy, and boosts the performance of MobileNetV3-Large by 2.16% top-1 accuracy and 1.18% top-5 accuracy.
A technique named Feature Learning from Image Markers (FLIM) was recently proposed to estimate convolutional filters, with no backpropagation, from strokes drawn by a user on very few images (e.g., 1-3) per class, and demonstrated for coconut-tree im age classification. This paper extends FLIM for fully connected layers and demonstrates it on different image classification problems. The work evaluates marker selection from multiple users and the impact of adding a fully connected layer. The results show that FLIM-based convolutional neural networks can outperform the same architecture trained from scratch by backpropagation.
Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have recently achieved state-of-the-art results in various applications. In the case of image recognition, an ideal model has to learn independently of the training data, both local dependencies between the three c omponents (R,G,B) of a pixel, and the global relations describing edges or shapes, making it efficient with small or heterogeneous datasets. Quaternion-valued convolutional neural networks (QCNN) solved this problematic by introducing multidimensional algebra to CNN. This paper proposes to explore the fundamental reason of the success of QCNN over CNN, by investigating the impact of the Hamilton product on a color image reconstruction task performed from a gray-scale only training. By learning independently both internal and external relations and with less parameters than real valued convolutional encoder-decoder (CAE), quaternion convolutional encoder-decoders (QCAE) perfectly reconstructed unseen color images while CAE produced worst and gray-sca
