In this post, we take a look at what deep convolutional neural networks (convnets) really learn, and how they understand the images we feed them. We will use Keras to visualize inputs that maximize the activation of the filters in different layers of the VGG16 architecture, trained on Imag...
In CNNs, a feature map is the output of a convolutional layer representing specific features in the input image or feature map. During the forward pass of a CNN, the input image is convolved with one or more filters to produce multiple feature maps. Each feature map corresponds to a specif...
A convolutional neural network (CNN) takes an input image and classifies it into any of the output classes. Each image passes through a series of different layers – primarily convolutional layers, pooling layers, and fully connected layers. The below picture summarizes what an image passes through...
The CNNs used in this study comprise a 1D-convolutional layer with fixed kernel size (three) and optimized number of filters, followed by a Max-Pooling layer and a Monte-Carlo dropout layer, applying a fixed dropout of 50% to prevent the model from overfitting. This dropout rate is quite...
The first two, convolution and pooling layers, perform feature extraction, whereas the third, a fully connected layer, maps the extracted features into final output, such as classification. A convolution layer plays a key role in CNN, which is composed of a stack of mathematical operations, ...
of Hebbian plasticity25,26, which has been found ubiquitously in the brain27,28. Although Hebbian learning is usually thought of as the primary plasticity mechanism rather than playing a supporting role, Hebbian plasticity alone has had limited success at disentangling representations in DNNs5,29,30...
The only information we have are edges and we all know what this is. CNNs and Human Vision There has been a lot of talk about how neural networks mimic the human brain. One scenario that gives some credence to this is the fact that just as the human brain begins to process visual cue...
Another typical characteristic of CNNs is a Dropout layer. The Dropout layer is a mask that nullifies the contribution of some neurons towards the next layer and leaves unmodified all others. We can apply a Dropout layer to the input vector, in which case it nullifies some of its features...
Section IV delves deeper into CNNs, RNNs, DBNs, and other widely used DL techniques in CV. In section V, we investigate the role of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to enable vision in self-driving cars. We discuss unsupervised learning and explore the possibilities of scene perception in ...
