In this paper, the Fourier transform of the input image was used as an auxiliary task to improve the performance of the primary image reconstruction task and introduce novel constraints not well covered by image reconstruction.
Abstract
Image reconstruction is likely the most predominant auxiliary task for image classification. In this paper, we investigate ``estimating the Fourier Transform of the input image" as a potential alternative auxiliary task, in the hope that it may further boost the performances on the primary task or introduce novel constraints not well covered by image reconstruction. We experimented with five popular classification architectures on the CIFAR-10 dataset, and the empirical results indicated that our proposed auxiliary task generally improves the classification accuracy. More notably, the results showed that in certain cases our proposed auxiliary task may enhance the classifiers' resistance to adversarial attacks generated using the fast gradient sign method.

Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a residual learning framework to ease the training of networks that are substantially deeper than those used previously, which won the 1st place on the ILSVRC 2015 classification task.

Very Deep Convolutional Networks for Large-Scale Image Recognition

TL;DR: This work investigates the effect of the convolutional network depth on its accuracy in the large-scale image recognition setting using an architecture with very small convolution filters, which shows that a significant improvement on the prior-art configurations can be achieved by pushing the depth to 16-19 weight layers.

MobileNetV2: Inverted Residuals and Linear Bottlenecks

TL;DR: A new mobile architecture, MobileNetV2, is described that improves the state of the art performance of mobile models on multiple tasks and benchmarks as well as across a spectrum of different model sizes and allows decoupling of the input/output domains from the expressiveness of the transformation.

Explaining and Harnessing Adversarial Examples

TL;DR: It is argued that the primary cause of neural networks' vulnerability to adversarial perturbation is their linear nature, supported by new quantitative results while giving the first explanation of the most intriguing fact about them: their generalization across architectures and training sets.
