Image quality plays a big role in CNN-based image classification performance. Fine-tuning the network with distorted samples may be too costly for large networks. To solve this issue, we propose a transfer learning approach optimized to keep into account that in each layer of a CNN some filters are more susceptible to image distortion than others. Our method identifies the most susceptible filters and applies retraining only to the filters that show the highest activation maps distance between clean and distorted images. Filters are ranked using the Borda count election method and then only the most affected filters are fine-tuned. This significantly reduces the number of parameters to retrain. We evaluate this approach on the CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 datasets, testing it on two different models and two different types of distortion. Results show that the proposed transfer learning technique recovers most of the lost performance due to input data distortion, at a considerably faster pace with respect to existing methods, thanks to the reduced number of parameters to fine-tune. When few noisy samples are provided for training, our filter-level fine tuning performs particularly well, also outperforming state of the art layer-level transfer learning approaches.

We propose a new method for creating computationally efficient convolutional neural networks (CNNs) by using low-rank representations of convolutional filters. Rather than approximating filters in previously-trained networks with more efficie
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) has been extensively studied for Hyperspectral Image Classification (HSIC) more specifically, 2D and 3D CNN models have proved highly efficient in exploiting the spatial and spectral information of Hyperspectral Im ages. However, 2D CNN only considers the spatial information and ignores the spectral information whereas 3D CNN jointly exploits spatial-spectral information at a high computational cost. Therefore, this work proposed a lightweight CNN (3D followed by 2D-CNN) model which significantly reduces the computational cost by distributing spatial-spectral feature extraction across a lighter model alongside a preprocessing that has been carried out to improve the classification results. Five benchmark Hyperspectral datasets (i.e., SalinasA, Salinas, Indian Pines, Pavia University, Pavia Center, and Botswana) are used for experimental evaluation. The experimental results show that the proposed pipeline outperformed in terms of generalization performance, statistical significance, and computational complexity, as compared to the state-of-the-art 2D/3D CNN models except commonly used computationally expensive design choices.
Few-shot image classification is a challenging problem which aims to achieve the human level of recognition based only on a small number of images. Deep learning algorithms such as meta-learning, transfer learning, and metric learning have been emplo yed recently and achieved the state-of-the-art performance. In this survey, we review representative deep metric learning methods for few-shot classification, and categorize them into three groups according to the major problems and novelties they focus on. We conclude this review with a discussion on current challenges and future trends in few-shot image classification.
We demonstrate in this paper that a generative model can be designed to perform classification tasks under challenging settings, including adversarial attacks and input distribution shifts. Specifically, we propose a conditional variational autoencod er that learns both the decomposition of inputs and the distributions of the resulting components. During test, we jointly optimize the latent variables of the generator and the relaxed component labels to find the best match between the given input and the output of the generator. The model demonstrates promising performance at recognizing overlapping components from the multiMNIST dataset, and novel component combinations from a traffic sign dataset. Experiments also show that the proposed model achieves high robustness on MNIST and NORB datasets, in particular for high-strength gradient attacks and non-gradient attacks.
The conventional spatial convolution layers in the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are computationally expensive at the point where the training time could take days unless the number of layers, the number of training images or the size of the t raining images are reduced. The image size of 256x256 pixels is commonly used for most of the applications of CNN, but this image size is too small for applications like Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) classification where the image details are important for accurate classification. This research proposed Frequency Domain Convolution (FDC) and Frequency Domain Pooling (FDP) layers which were built with RFFT, kernel initialization strategy, convolution artifact removal and Channel Independent Convolution (CIC) to replace the conventional convolution and pooling layers. The FDC and FDP layers are used to build a Frequency Domain Convolutional Neural Network (FDCNN) to accelerate the training of large images for DR classification. The Full FDC layer is an extension of the FDC layer to allow direct use in conventional CNNs, it is also used to modify the VGG16 architecture. FDCNN is shown to be at least 54.21% faster and 70.74% more memory efficient compared to an equivalent CNN architecture. The modified VGG16 architecture with Full FDC layer is reported to achieve a shorter training time and a higher accuracy at 95.63% compared to the original VGG16 architecture for DR classification.
