Abstract:

The object of research is the ability to combine a previously trained model of a deep neural network of direct propagation with user data when used in problems of determining the class of one object in the image. That is, the processes of transfer learning in convolutional neural networks in classification problems are considered. The conducted researches are based on application of a method of comparison of theoretical and practical results received at training of convolutional neural networks. The main objective of this research is to conduct two different learning processes. Traditional training during which in each epoch of training there is an adjustment of values of all weights of each layer of a network. After that there is a process of training of a neural network on a sample of the data presented by images. The second process is learning using transfer learning methods, when initializing a pre-trained network, the weights of all its layers are «frozen» except for the last fully connected layer. This layer will be replaced by a new one with the number of outputs, which should be equal to the number of classes in the sample. After that, to initialize its parameters by the random values distributed according to the normal law. Then conduct training of such convolutional neural network on the set sample. When the training was conducted, the results were compared. In conclusion, learning from convolutional neural networks using transfer learning techniques can be applied to a variety of classification tasks, ranging from numbers to space objects (stars and quasars). The amount of computer resources spent on research is also quite important. Because not all model of a convolutional neural network can be fully taught without powerful computer systems and a large number of images in the training sample.
