A Taxonomy of Deep Convolutional Neural Nets for Computer Vision
Traditional architectures for solving computer vision problems and the degree
of success they enjoyed have been heavily reliant on hand-crafted features.
However, of late, deep learning techniques have offered a compelling
alternative -- that of automatically learning problem-specific features. With
this new paradigm, every problem in computer vision is now being re-examined
from a deep learning perspective. Therefore, it has become important to
understand what kind of deep networks are suitable for a given problem.
Although general surveys of this fast-moving paradigm (i.e. deep-networks)
exist, a survey specific to computer vision is missing. We specifically
consider one form of deep networks widely used in computer vision -
convolutional neural networks (CNNs). We start with "AlexNet" as our base CNN
and then examine the broad variations proposed over time to suit different
applications. We hope that our recipe-style survey will serve as a guide,
particularly for novice practitioners intending to use deep-learning techniques
for computer vision.Comment: Published in Frontiers in Robotics and AI (http://goo.gl/6691Bm
A Survey on Deep Learning in Medical Image Analysis
Deep learning algorithms, in particular convolutional networks, have rapidly
become a methodology of choice for analyzing medical images. This paper reviews
the major deep learning concepts pertinent to medical image analysis and
summarizes over 300 contributions to the field, most of which appeared in the
last year. We survey the use of deep learning for image classification, object
detection, segmentation, registration, and other tasks and provide concise
overviews of studies per application area. Open challenges and directions for
future research are discussed.Comment: Revised survey includes expanded discussion section and reworked
introductory section on common deep architectures. Added missed papers from
before Feb 1st 201
A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote
