Borrowing Treasures from the Wealthy: Deep Transfer Learning through Selective Joint Fine-tuning
Deep neural networks require a large amount of labeled training data during
supervised learning. However, collecting and labeling so much data might be
infeasible in many cases. In this paper, we introduce a source-target selective
joint fine-tuning scheme for improving the performance of deep learning tasks
with insufficient training data. In this scheme, a target learning task with
insufficient training data is carried out simultaneously with another source
learning task with abundant training data. However, the source learning task
does not use all existing training data. Our core idea is to identify and use a
subset of training images from the original source learning task whose
low-level characteristics are similar to those from the target learning task,
and jointly fine-tune shared convolutional layers for both tasks. Specifically,
we compute descriptors from linear or nonlinear filter bank responses on
training images from both tasks, and use such descriptors to search for a
desired subset of training samples for the source learning task.
Experiments demonstrate that our selective joint fine-tuning scheme achieves
state-of-the-art performance on multiple visual classification tasks with
insufficient training data for deep learning. Such tasks include Caltech 256,
MIT Indoor 67, Oxford Flowers 102 and Stanford Dogs 120. In comparison to
fine-tuning without a source domain, the proposed method can improve the
classification accuracy by 2% - 10% using a single model.Comment: To appear in 2017 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern

End-to-End Multi-View Networks for Text Classification
We propose a multi-view network for text classification. Our method
automatically creates various views of its input text, each taking the form of
soft attention weights that distribute the classifier's focus among a set of
base features. For a bag-of-words representation, each view focuses on a
different subset of the text's words. Aggregating many such views results in a
more discriminative and robust representation. Through a novel architecture
that both stacks and concatenates views, we produce a network that emphasizes
both depth and width, allowing training to converge quickly. Using our
multi-view architecture, we establish new state-of-the-art accuracies on two
benchmark tasks.Comment: 6 page
Deep Learning in the Automotive Industry: Applications and Tools
Deep Learning refers to a set of machine learning techniques that utilize
neural networks with many hidden layers for tasks, such as image
classification, speech recognition, language understanding. Deep learning has
been proven to be very effective in these domains and is pervasively used by
many Internet services. In this paper, we describe different automotive uses
cases for deep learning in particular in the domain of computer vision. We
surveys the current state-of-the-art in libraries, tools and infrastructures
(e.\,g.\ GPUs and clouds) for implementing, training and deploying deep neural
networks. We particularly focus on convolutional neural networks and computer
vision use cases, such as the visual inspection process in manufacturing plants
and the analysis of social media data. To train neural networks, curated and
labeled datasets are essential. In particular, both the availability and scope
of such datasets is typically very limited. A main contribution of this paper
is the creation of an automotive dataset, that allows us to learn and
automatically recognize different vehicle properties. We describe an end-to-end
deep learning application utilizing a mobile app for data collection and
process support, and an Amazon-based cloud backend for storage and training.
For training we evaluate the use of cloud and on-premises infrastructures
(including multiple GPUs) in conjunction with different neural network
architectures and frameworks. We assess both the training times as well as the
accuracy of the classifier. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the
trained classifier in a real world setting during manufacturing process.Comment: 10 page
