✨Other Approaches
🔄 Residual Networks
🙄 Problem
During each iteration of training a neural network, all weights receive an update proportional to the partial derivative of the error function with respect to the current weight. If the gradient is very small then the weights will not be change effectively and it may completely stop the neural network from further training 🙄😪. The phenomenon is called vanishing gradients 🙁
Simply 😅: we can say that the data is disappearing through the layers of the deep neural network due to very slow gradient descent
The core idea of ResNet is introducing a so-called identity shortcut connection that skips one or more layers, like the following
🙌 Plain Nets vs ResNets
👀 Visualization
🤗 Advantages
Easy for one of the blocks to learn an identity function
Can go deeper without hurting the performance
In the Plain NNs, because of the vanishing and exploding gradients problems the performance of the network suffers as it goes deeper.
1️⃣ One By One Convolutions
Propblem (Or motivation 🤔)
We can reduce the size of inputs by applying pooling and various convolution, these filteres can reduce the height and the width of the input image, what about color channels 🌈, in other words; what about the depth?
🤸♀️ Solution
We know that the depth of the output of a CNN is equal to the number of filters that we applied on the input;
In the example above, we applied 2 filters, so the output depth is 2
How can we use this info to improve our CNNs? 🙄
Let's say that we have a 28x28x192 dimensional input, if we apply 32 filters at 1x1x192 dimension and SAME padding our output will become 28x28x32 ✨
