Introduction to Architectures for Image Classification

Learn about image classification tasks and briefly compare fully connected and convolutional neural networks.

Chapter review

In this chapter, we will explore the meaning of image classification and learn how the most popular architectures classify images.

  1. First, we will check the differences and use cases between fully connected and convolutional neural networks.
  2. Next, we will learn how to mix them to obtain image classification architectures.
  3. Lastly, we will examine the most successful techniques from older to newer versions with the novelties that they brought us.

We will explain the main problems in deep neural network training, network size, and computational cost calculation to elaborate the intuition about the logic of these novelties.
