Very Deep Convolutional Networks for Large-Scale Image Recognition

TLDR
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.
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.

Scene Graph Generation by Iterative Message Passing

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of graph generation is formulated as message passing between the primal node graph and its dual edge graph, which can take advantage of contextual cues to make better predictions on objects and their relationships.

VoxelNet: End-to-End Learning for Point Cloud Based 3D Object Detection

TL;DR: VoxelNet is proposed, a generic 3D detection network that unifies feature extraction and bounding box prediction into a single stage, end-to-end trainable deep network and learns an effective discriminative representation of objects with various geometries, leading to encouraging results in3D detection of pedestrians and cyclists.

Deep Networks with Stochastic Depth

TL;DR: Stochastic depth as discussed by the authors randomly drops a subset of layers during training and bypasses them with the identity function, which can increase the depth of residual networks even beyond 1200 layers and still yield meaningful improvements in test error.

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.
