Primary LanguageC++

#conv-net-version-3.1.0

Deep neural network frame (C++ / OpenCV).

To run this code, you should have

  • a cifar-10 dataset( put "cifar-10-batches-bin" where this .md file is, you can get it from HERE, make sure to download the binary version which suitable for C programs);
  • OpenCV 3.0.
  • cmake

##Compile & Run

  • Compile:
cmake .
make
  • Run:
./cnn3

##Updates

  • 3-channels images supported.
  • Add Dropout;
  • Local Response Normalization supported.
  • Use log files dig deeper.
  • Use second order derivative back-prop to alter learning rate.
  • Jul 1: version 3.1.0 released
  • NEW: Jul.13 OpenCV 3.0 supported, use dft to accelerate convolution

##Layer Config Description

  • For each layer, there is a layer_name, a layer_type, and a output_format.
  • There are currently 2 output formats: matrix (cv::Mat, CV_64FC1), and image (vector of cv::Mat, CV_64FC3).

####Input Layer

  • batch size: the training process is using mini-batch stochastic gradient descent.

####Convolutional Layer

  • kernel size: size of kernels for convolution calculation.
  • kernel amount: amount of kernels for convolution calculation.
  • combine map: amount of combine feature map, details can be found in Notes on Convolutional Neural Networks.
  • weight decay: weight decay for convolutional kernels.
  • padding: padding before doing convolution.
  • stride: stride when doing convolution (For "VALID" type of convolution, result size = (image_size + 2 * padding - kernel_size) / stride + 1).

####Fully Connected Layer

  • num hidden neurons: size of fully connected layer.
  • weight decay: weight decay for fully connected layer.

####Softmax Layer

  • num classes: output size of softmax layer.
  • weight decay: weight decay for softmax layer.

####Non-linearity Layer

  • method: sigmoid/tanh/relu/leaky_relu.

####Pooling Layer

  • method: max/mean/stochastic.
  • overlap: if use overlap pooling.
  • window size: window size when using overlap pooling.
  • stride: pooling stride.

####Local Response Normalization Layer

####Dropout Layer

  • dropout rate: percentage of zeros when generating Bernoulli matrix.

####Combine Layer

  • for implementing GoogLeNet, TODO...

####Branch Layer

  • for implementing GoogLeNet, TODO...

##Structure and Algorithm See my several posts about CNNs at my tech-blog.

##TODO *combine layer *branch layer

##GPU Version There's also a GPU version of this code which I used nVidia CUDA..
