Study Notes

Normalization

  • Normalization is essential before training a neural network to bring the input data to a manageable scale.
  • Techniques of normalization include:
    • Scaling to a range (min-max scaling)
    • z-score (standard normal distribution)

Avoiding Overfitting

  • Overfitting can be avoided by using regularization techniques
  • Definition of regularization: "any modification to a learning algorithm to reduce its generalization error but not its training error"
  • Examples of regularization techniques:
    • Early Stopping

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)

  • CNNs are a special case of fully connected neural networks with more layers and deeper architecture.
  • CNNs are suitable for image classification tasks.
  • Examples of CNN architectures:
    • LeNet
    • Google LeNet (ILSVRC 2014 winner)
    • Inception Module

Inception Module

  • Inception Module is an image model block that approximates an optimal local sparse structure in a CNN.
  • It allows using multiple types of filter sizes in a single image block.

Google LeNet

  • Introduces the concept of Inception Module
  • Dramatically reduces the number of parameters (from 60M to 4M)

VGG Net

  • Runner-up in ILSVRC 2014
  • Homogeneous architecture with only 3x3 convolutions and 2x2 pooling
  • Has 140M parameters, most of which are in the fully connected layer

Pre-trained Models

  • Keras provides pre-trained models such as VGG19 and InceptionV3
  • Pre-trained models can be used for:
    • Classification with base classes (Imagenet classes)
    • Extracting features from an intermediate layer
    • Fine-tuning on a new set of classes

Training Deeper Neural Networks

  • Training deeper neural networks is more of an art and requires patience.
  • Suggestions for training deeper neural networks:
    • Understand the data
    • Verify the quality of data
    • Start with a small and less complex model
    • Improve the model iteratively

Batch Normalizations and Other Techniques

  • Batch normalizations and other normalization techniques can be used to improve training stability
  • Gradient Descent with Momentum, RMS Prop, etc. can be used for optimization
