Study Notes

Overview of CNN

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a class of deep learning neural networks.
They are designed specializing in analyzing visual imagery.

Problem & Motivation

Traditional Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) struggle with image data due to a large number of parameters when dealing with high-resolution images.
CNNs are structured differently to address this problem, making them suited for image data.

Components of CNN

Convolutional Layers
ReLU Layers
Pooling Layers
Fully Connected Layers

Convolutional Layers

Process input images using filters
Filters extract features
Convolutional layers are repeatedly applied to images, creating increasingly complex feature maps.
The result of these layers is a series of 2D output arrays called feature maps.

ReLU Layers

Introduce non-linearity to the model.
Applying the rectified linear unit (ReLU) activation function to a given feature map to the values that are negative and set to zero to values that are zero or positive.
This helps to create complex decision boundaries.

Pooling Layers

Subsampling technique that reduces the dimensionality of feature maps.
Reduces the computational cost.
Common operation is max-pooling where the maximum value within a defined neighborhood is taken.
Decreases overfitting by reducing sensitivity to spurious variations in the image.

Fully Connected Layer

Standard dense Neural Network layers.
After flattening, the feature map is fed into a fully connected layer to categorize an image.

Additional considerations of CNN

Location invariance: CNNs are designed to be location invariant; they can detect features even if their positions change in the image.
In the context of image classification, CNNs are more efficient due to their unique architecture which allows filters to be reused over multiple layers.
Data augmentation: Techniques like rotation and scaling are needed to augment the data to make the CNN more generalized.

Image Classification using CNN

The process involves feature extraction and classification.
CNN employs filters to extract features from an image.
Learned features provide an understanding of the basic components of the image.
The extracted features are then flattened and passed to a fully connected layer to categorize the image.

Stochastic Optimization Algorithms for Big Data Analytics

These algorithms provide an efficient method for optimizing neural networks when large datasets or complex models are involved.
Common algorithms include:
Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD)
Mini-batch Gradient Descent
SGD with Momentum
Adagrad
Adadelta
RMSprop
Adam

Gradient Descent (GD)

The basic optimization algorithm in machine learning that uses complete training data.
Calculates the gradient using the whole dataset to correct inaccuracies
Suitable for smaller datasets where high accuracy is crucial.

SGD (Stochastic Gradient Descent)

Optimizes parameters using single training record
Faster than GD when dealing with large datasets
Less stable, prone to oscillations, especially on noisy data.

Mini-batch Gradient Descent (mini-batch GD)

Represents an intermediate option, processing data in smaller sets/batches
Provides a balance between the speed of SGD and the stability of GD.
The choice of batch size is a crucial hyperparameter which needs to be tuned carefully.

Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) with Momentum

The update rule for SGD is adapted by including a moving average of past gradients that aids in reaching an optimum.
Helps in reaching a global optimum faster, mitigating oscillations.

Adagrad

Adaptive optimization algorithm that adjusts learning rates for individual parameters based on the historical gradients.
Well suited for sparse data
Learning rates decrease with time, which can hinder in later training stages.

Adadelta

An optimization algorithm adjusting learning rates individually, accounting for past squared gradients and updates.
A more memory-efficient choice than Adagrad

RMSprop

Adapts the learning rate for each parameter by utilizing a decaying average of squared gradients.
Addresses Adagrad's challenges effectively
The choice of decay rate is a hyperparameter crucial for optimality

Adam

Adapts the learning rates for each parameter based on first-order moments and second-order moments
Addresses challenges related to sparse or noisy gradients.
Very efficient compared to other adaptive optimization algorithms

Activation Function: ReLU (Rectifier Linear Unit)

Introduces non-linearity in a neural network.
Converts negative input values to zero and keeps positive values.
Speeds up training and accelerates convergence.
Allows CNNs to learn complex features for complex tasks and decision boundaries.

Filter Size, Stride, and Padding in CNN

Filter size: The dimensions of the filter used for convolutions.
Stride: The number of pixels by which the filter moves in each iteration.
Padding: Adding extra pixels to the input image to control the output size.
