Collective Residual Networks

This repository contains the code and trained models of "Sharing Residual Units Through Collective Tensor Factorization in Deep Neural Networks".

Implementation

Augmentation

Method Settings
Random Mirror True
Random Crop 8% - 100%
Aspect Ratio 3/4 - 4/3
Random HSL [20,40,50]

Note: We did not use PCA Lighting and any other advanced augmentation methods.

Normalization

The augmented input images are substrated by mean RGB = [ 124, 117, 104 ], and then multiplied by 0.0167.
