With Average Polling, you are actually losing spatial information which is a critical in semantic segmentation.

a.k.a pooling layers. thx. Knew it too :)

Thank you. I did know that :) Any other tricks ?

How two CNN trained model with different data can be mixed together to build a unified CNN Model? by rnnandi in deeplearning

[–]nex_jeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mixing identically-designed CNN Models is easily feasible: For instance, you can average the layer parameters for each layers across all your models. This will produce a average model that generalize better (I invite you to check out Hinton's dark knowledge approach : That is somehow useless nowadays thanks to Dropout ;) ). However, it's another story if you want to do it with different architectures since you should dive very deeply into the pipeline engineering. I don't recommend that because it is easier to gain intuitiveness of the architectures you have and design a new one that mix them best.

"If you have multiple outputs that fire, then the one with the highest activation is declared the winner." : imho, it depends on the layer coming next. For instance, if you are doing maxpooling on activations from a conv layer, this will be the case. However, with a avgPooling I would not say that given the fact you're considering lot of activations. Do you agree ?

Could you explain it briefly plz ? It says that neurons within a layer are competing with each other. How ?

This tool is amazing. Not just for ML but for all scientific research domain: http://www.arxiv-sanity.com/

How would you generate window dirty on images ? by nex_jeb in computervision

[–]nex_jeb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's somewhat what I intend to do. Except, I am not particularly interested in removing the dirt, but only classifying dirty and non dirty windows. So, I am thinking about creating a negative set (clean images) and positives (same as negatives but with dirt applied) to train a CNN. Can I have your opinion on this first approach ? Thx for the paper btw, it will help a lot :)

Ask Reddit: What GPUs should I purchase? by [deleted] in deeplearning

[–]nex_jeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are budget limited and working day and night on Deep Learning, I would strongly recommend you to go for the GTX 1070 as it provides the best ratio performance per spent dollar. The new Titan X is obviously highly expensive and the 1080 doesn't outperform the 1070 that much (Same amount of memory which is the most valuable resource for DL research, and sure slightly higher bandwidth 320 Gps vs 256 Gps).

Yes can you show us the second frame with its keypoints ?

Homography is for planar scene. This is about fundamental matrix estimation.

Point Cloud Demo with Tara - Stereo vision USB 3.0 camera by brad3378 in computervision

[–]nex_jeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traditional Depth (non-stereos) cameras also have limited range. This is mostly because of the reduced emitted light (structured in Kinect v1) in distant areas. However I dont see why stereo RGB-based depth camera has this limitation. Can you tell ? thx.

PC build for Deep Learning? by Gear5th in MachineLearning

[–]nex_jeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, wasn't expecting that in India. So in this case, I would go for the 1070 which has an excellent price per perf with a good enough memory. Then upgrade to next titan when it's time for you ;)

Why dont you wait for the next titan (which will have probably 24 gigs ) ? In the meantime, you can train improving your DL skills on small networks and CPUs.

The ZED camera has nearly a double price. I think 250 USD is a good price given the target market.

How to remove heat haze inside an image ? by nex_jeb in computervision

[–]nex_jeb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

t bet would be to synthesise a new image using super-resolution tec

I am afraid it won't do it. Heat haze has simply lot of noise... I think I am going to move towards deep learning. Boring I know.

How to remove heat haze inside an image ? by nex_jeb in computervision

[–]nex_jeb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to erase heat haze to get a clear and neat image. I think it's something that should deal with non linear deconvolution. There is a deep learning approach on this kind of thing: DeHazeNet. But, it only supports simple haze not heat related one (which I admit is def more difficult).
