TLDR
This work equips the networks with another pooling strategy, “spatial pyramid pooling”, to eliminate the above requirement, and develops a new network structure, called SPP-net, which can generate a fixed-length representation regardless of image size/scale.Abstract:
Existing deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) require a fixed-size (e.g. 224×224) input image. This requirement is “artificial” and may hurt the recognition accuracy for the images or sub-images of an arbitrary size/scale. In this work, we equip the networks with a more principled pooling strategy, “spatial pyramid pooling”, to eliminate the above requirement. The new network structure, called SPP-net, can generate a fixed-length representation regardless of image size/scale. By removing the fixed-size limitation, we can improve all CNN-based image classification methods in general. Our SPP-net achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on the datasets of ImageNet 2012, Pascal VOC 2007, and Caltech101.read more

Learning the Best Pooling Strategy for Visual Semantic Embedding.
TL;DR: A Generalized Pooling Operator (GPO) is proposed, which learns to automatically adapt itself to the best pooling strategy for different features, requiring no manual tuning while staying effective and efficient and can be a plug-and-play feature aggregation module for standard VSE models.

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.
