备注

图像分类问题包含两个重要的部分:特征提取器和分类器.多年来研究人员一直将精力投入到特征表示中,对于分类器却仅进行局部调参.基于一个性能优异的分类器与特征表示对图像分类系统同等重要的思想,提出了基于卷积特征的栈自编码器(stacked autoencoder on convolutional feature maps,SACF)的分类系统,并在数据集 CUB-200和 VGG-flower上进行了实验,对比了SACF与基于卷积特征和多层感知机的卷积神经网络(CNN)分类系统的分类效果,实验结果表明SACF具有更优的分类效果.

In problems of image classification,there are two important components:a feature extractor and a classifier.Researchers have focused on the former for decades,but only for local parameter adjustmentfor classifiers.According to the idea that a good classifier is just as important as the feature representation for the image classification,a classification system based on stacked autoencoder on convolutional feature maps(SACF)is proposed.Experiments are performed based on the CUB-200 and VGG-flower datasets and the classification results of the SACF classification system and the CNN classification system which based on convolutional feature maps and multilayer perceptron are compared.Results show that the accuracy of classification of SACF is superior to that of CNN.
