Abstract
In this work we investigate the effect of the convolutional network depth on its accuracy in the large-scale image recognition setting. Our main contribution is a thorough evaluation of networks of increasing depth using an architecture with very small (3x3) 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. These findings were the basis of our ImageNet Challenge 2014 submission, where our team secured the first and the second places in the localisation and classification tracks respectively. We also show that our representations generalise well to other datasets, where they achieve state-of-the-art results. We have made our two best-performing ConvNet models publicly available to facilitate further research on the use of deep visual representations in computer vision.

Feature Pyramid and Hierarchical Boosting Network for Pavement Crack Detection

TL;DR: Yan et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a novel network architecture, named feature pyramid and hierarchical boosting network (FPHBN), which integrates context information to low-level features for crack detection in a feature pyramid way, and it balances the contributions of both easy and hard samples to loss by nested sample reweighting in a hierarchical way during training.

Learning the Number of Neurons in Deep Networks.

TL;DR: This paper proposes to make use of a group sparsity regularizer on the parameters of the network, where each group is defined to act on a single neuron, and shows that this approach can reduce the number of parameters by up to 80\% while retaining or even improving the network accuracy.

StyleBank: An Explicit Representation for Neural Image Style Transfer

TL;DR: In this article, a StyleBank is proposed, which is composed of multiple convolution filter banks and each filter bank explicitly represents one style, for neural image style transfer, where the auto-encoder does not encode any style information thanks to the flexibility introduced by the explicit style representation.

ImageNet: A large-scale hierarchical image database

TL;DR: A new database called “ImageNet” is introduced, a large-scale ontology of images built upon the backbone of the WordNet structure, much larger in scale and diversity and much more accurate than the current image datasets.

Rich Feature Hierarchies for Accurate Object Detection and Semantic Segmentation

TL;DR: RCNN as discussed by the authors combines CNNs with bottom-up region proposals to localize and segment objects, and when labeled training data is scarce, supervised pre-training for an auxiliary task, followed by domain-specific fine-tuning, yields a significant performance boost.
