Contributor: Muhammad Shafiq , Zhaoquan Gu

In 2015, a deep residual network (ResNet) was proposed for image recognition. It is a type of convolutional neural
network (CNN) where the input from the previous layer is added to the output of the current layer. Deep Residual
Networks have recently been shown to significantly improve the performance of neural networks trained on
ImageNet, with results beating all previous methods on this dataset by large margins in the image classification
task.

1. Introduction
Deep residual learning is a neural network architecture that was proposed in 2015 by He et al. [1] The paper Deep
Residual Learning for Image Recognition has been cited many times and is one of the most influential papers in
the field of computer vision. In this entry, researchers will survey the recent advances in deep residual learning.
After discussing what deep residual networks are, researchers will review their properties, including stability and
trainability. Next, researchers will discuss some recent applications of deep residual networks. Finally, researchers
will provide their thoughts on future research directions in deep residual learning and end with open questions. This
comprehensive survey looks at the current state of the art in deep learning for image recognition and proposes a
new method, called deep residual learning, which offers significant improvements over existing methods. The
author in [1] provides a detailed overview of the proposed approach and its advantages. The proposed deep
residual learning is computationally efficient as it has a low parameter number and uses simple backpropagation to
reduce computation cost.

They also [2] suggest that there are applications other than just image recognition, such as translation and speech
recognition, which could benefit from deep residual learning. Similarly, author [3] presents comparisons between
different models with different architectures and finds that deep residual models always outperform other models.
In addition, the author points out various challenges in applying the proposed deep residual learning. For instance,
how do we deal with saturation and dropout? How do we deal with tasks like translation where there is less data
available? The author concludes their paper by suggesting future research directions on how these challenges can
be overcome. They point out that more details should be studied on combining deep residual learning with neural
architecture search, spatial domain convolutions, constrained adversarial loss function and Gaussian-based
generative models. Couso in 2018 in [2] proposes an alternative algorithm for maximizing likelihood rather than

mean square error, which is currently used. They also suggest studying the proposed model for other computer
vision tasks like face detection, segmentation, and object classification. They conclude their research study by
pointing out limitations in proposed deep residual learning. They noted that compared to traditional methods, the
proposed deep residual learning lacks computational efficiency when dealing with larger data sets and thus cannot
scale up quickly enough. However, the authors point out that this problem can be solved by clustering input data
into smaller subsets so only a subset of the total data needs to be processed during each iteration. Similarly, Feng
et al. in [4] mention that deep residual learning, like any other unsupervised learning, requires a large amount of
unlabeled data. They have done some experiments with a small amount of labeled data but they have not been
able to get satisfactory results. The authors end their work by mentioning possible solutions: introducing few labels
(which may require human intervention) or adding a fully supervised component. They also propose to create a
dataset that contains images with predefined metadata and use the metadata as supervision.

The author in [5] ends their study by concluding that deep residual learning for image recognition is a promising
direction in image recognition. They note that deep residual learning for image recognition is computationally
efficient, more accurate and suitable for sparse data representations. They also emphasize the fact that deep
residual learning for image recognition does not depend on complicated handcrafted features or the topographic
organization of input data. However, the detailed workflow of researchers' proposed survey is shown in Figure 1.

They conclude their paper by proposing directions for future research which include looking into combining deep
residual learning with neural architecture search, spatial domain convolutions, constrained adversarial loss function
and Gaussian-based generative models. In their study they also mention the need to find a solution to minimize the
negative effect of data noise in deep residual learning. Mindy yang et al. in [6] proposes to create a dataset that
contains images with predefined metadata and use the metadata as supervision. They show that deep residual
learning for image recognition is computationally expensive because it is sensitive to high dimensional data and
propose to combine deep residual learning with artificial intelligence techniques like reinforcement learning, and
they discuss whether or not deep residual learning will help advance machine learning in general.

The study also notes that deep residual learning is successful because it can take advantage of large amounts of
training data without requiring much hand engineering or task-specific feature engineering. The author of [7]

proposes to develop a new framework which may be required when using deep residual learning. These tools are
difficult to make assumptions about what they should do in terms of accuracy gains or performance losses due to
complexity. The author states that deep residuals provide more accurate representations of object boundaries than
traditional models and also allow for localization without global context. The basic structure is shown in Figure 2.

Zhu in [8] mentions how standard convolutional neural networks have limited the amount of parameters when
compared to standard feedforward neural networks, which could explain why these types of models outperform
them on certain tasks such as detection, localization, segmentation, tracking, and classification. The author
mentions how difficult it would be to design different objective functions, with one per desired application. They
propose an improved form of standard deep residual learning by combining batches into a single input batch and
taking an average gradient across all images. The idea behind this is the hope that all datasets are similar enough
so that averaging their gradients improves the gradient quality.

The result of implementing these changes was improved computational efficiency, while maintaining good accuracy
levels which might make this model applicable to real world applications. The proposed improvements were shown
to improve deep residual learning’s ability to work well with large amounts of high dimensional data and thus make
it useful for many applications. It would be interesting to see if these improvements in computing power can be
applied to other fields besides image recognition. The author then goes on to talk about future steps and argues
that deep residual learning’s potential beyond image recognition needs to be explored.

2. What Is a Deep Residual Network?

In 2015, a deep residual network (ResNet) was proposed by the authors in [1] for image recognition. It is a type of
convolutional neural network (CNN) where the input from the previous layer is added to the output of the current
layer. This skip connection makes it easier for the network to learn and results in better performance. The ResNet
architecture has been successful in a number of tasks, including image classification, object detection, and
semantic segmentation. Additionally, since ResNets are made up of layers, these networks can be arbitrarily deep
for an arbitrary level of spatial representation. There are various reasons for the success of the model: the large
receptive fields that capture more information about each pixel in an image; the separation between the localization
and classification stages; the computational efficiency at higher levels; the efficient encoding schemes with low-
complexity arithmetic operations; and there is increased accuracy as features are extracted deeper into the
network.

Despite these advantages, current ResNets are computationally very expensive. While modern GPUs can perform
over one hundred million operations per second (Giga ops), a commonly used architecture of a fully connected
layer with ten million weights takes more than two hours to train. This is why the authors in [9] propose to replace
some fully connected layers by stochastic pooling layers and to reduce it from a 5 × 5 filter size to a 3 × 3 filter size.

In summary, deep residual learning for image recognition has been shown to be an effective method for image
classification tasks. However, similar architectures have not yet been explored for other computer vision tasks such
as semantic segmentation or object detection. There are several open problems that need further exploration when
doing so, including computational efficiency at higher levels and training stability; adding skip connections; network
depth versus complexity; biasing nonlinearities during training; input preprocessing issues such as batch
normalization, data augmentation algorithms for improving accuracy for underrepresented classes such as at
nighttime images versus daytime images using same classifier neural network through exploiting spatio-temporal

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 4/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

coherence; practicality of architectures; stability while small local minima not having significant impact upon
generalization performance since big changes happen early vs. late in the sequence;this would allow for the
concurrent tuning of different regions of parameters instead of completely independent ones.

The major issue with traditional CNNs is that they have to learn the entire feature map, which means that they
need a huge number of parameters. This, in turn, means that they are very expensive to train and also slow to run.

ResNets are a family of neural networks that were proposed as an improvement over traditional CNNs. In
particular, ResNets use skip connections (which I’ll describe below), which allow them to be much smaller than
traditional CNNs while still having similar performance. Skip connections can be used in any neural network
architecture, but they are particularly useful for convolutional neural networks because they let you reuse parts of
your feature map between layers in different positions.

Here researchers have a simple three-layer convolutional network with two convolutional layers followed by a
pooling layer. The input is fed into layer 1, which performs its computation and outputs a feature map (which is just
an array of numbers). Layer 2 then performs its own computation on top of layer 1’s output and produces another
feature map. This process repeats until it reaches the final layer.

Aryo Michael and Melki Garonga in 2021 [10] also proposed a new residual network with deep residual learning for
image recognition, which integrates element-wise pooling with multi-scale features. Their approach combines
depthwise separable convolution and deconvolution operations along with 2 × 2 and 3 × 3 convolutions to form
different types of layers. For instance, layer 2 is made up of three layers: one that performs 4 × 4 convolution by
padding its input images with zero; another that computes 2 × 2 deconvolution (i.e., transpose of spatial average);
and a third layer that performs 3 × 3 convolution. In order to reduce computational costs, they replace some fully
connected layers with more computationally efficient ones like stochastic pooling layers. The authors in proposed a
new residual network with deep residual learning for image recognition. This is a hybrid model that incorporates
both LSTM and CNNs. They show that their proposed architecture of outperforms.

In order to reduce computation costs, the authors in [11] propose replacing some fully connected layers with more
computationally efficient ones like stochastic pooling layers. They propose a new residual network with deep
residual learning for image recognition, which is a hybrid model that incorporates both LSTM and CNNs. This
proposed architecture outperforms the ResNet-50 benchmark in terms of top-1 and top-5 error rates for the
CIFAR10 dataset with comparable computational cost to the original ResNet-50. Furthermore, there are still a
number of open problems that require more research, such as parallelizing for faster execution, using learned
representations for transfer learning and sparse networks for reducing memory consumption, and using
unsupervised feature extraction techniques to obtain meaningful high level descriptors and visual representations.
Another idea is to use unlabeled and semi-labeled images for learning additional task-specific image descriptors
and filters. Finally, deep residual learning for image recognition should be investigated for sequences of more than
three frames in video and scene understanding.

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 5/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

Thus, the proposed architecture of deep residual learning for image recognition outperforms the ResNet-50
benchmark in terms of top-one and top-five error rates for the CIFAR10 dataset with comparable computational
costs to the original ResNet-50. Future work should include investigations of how deep residual learning for image
recognition might function with higher level applications such as scene understanding or video processing. This
can potentially provide a strong foundation for leveraging deep residual learning for image recognition for future
tasks such as human pose estimation. For the purposes of large-scale learning, deep residual learning for image
recognition may be able to speed up supervised learning of heterogeneous datasets where the volumes of data
and computation power available are limited. On a smaller scale, deep residual learning for image recognition may
improve real-time responsiveness in autonomous vehicles and better respond to dynamic environments that
include objects that appear, disappear, or change position.

There is potential with these models that is untapped due to many applications being based off of humans
annotating their own photographs with different objects and labels. The development of detectors in machine
systems will need human assistance to operate effectively. These detectors need to be trained effectively in order
for them to take the place of human labor and assist industry [12] at greater levels. Developments have been
proposed in methods for vision including deep residual learning for image recognition, where a model uses both
neural networks and long short term memory recurrent neural networks (LSTMs). These proposed architectures
are necessary because traditionally neural networks have had a very limited capability when it comes to sequential
information. The capabilities for current machines are mostly found through continuous streams or fast frames, but
most action happens over extended periods of time, which does not lend itself well for traditional algorithms used in
vision models. These methods need improvement so that systems do not fall behind those humans who will
continue to develop them beyond this point. Reserves need to be planned for the future, and this requires
investments in training and developing computers that are equipped with sophisticated sensors. If a sufficient
amount of investment is made in deep residual learning for image recognition, it could solve the problem of
autonomous machines that cannot identify features in an environment. Human operators would then only input
markers for certain features that would make machine systems more intelligent. Machine-learning models could
then quickly identify objects and text from the map given to them by humans. Humans could maintain control until
the system becomes proficient enough to support its users without supervision, but with a continuous stream of
feedback from the AI system. This feedback loop for machine systems would help refine the AI’s objectives and
approach to specific problems, which in turn will allow for refined solutions for any objective. Machines can always
become smarter than humans in some aspect of intelligence, but this shouldn’t impede our ability to teach them
what we know so they may learn faster than we ever could alone.

3. What Is Image Recognition?

Image recognition is a field of computer vision that deals with the identification and classification of objects in digital
images. It is a subset of machine learning, which is a branch of artificial intelligence that deals with the design and
development of algorithms that can learn from and make predictions on data. When you take a picture, it could be
an image containing any number of items: dogs, cars, people, etc. There are countless other things in the world

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 6/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

besides these. The goal of image recognition is to assign categories to each one; so that when you upload an
image to your social media feed or search Google Images you will get back information about what is in it and find
out where else you might find them. For instance, if you were looking at this photo of someone holding their dog,
researchers' application would recognize that there is a person in the photo and show their name as well as the
name of their pet.

Image recognition is a problem within computer vision which refers to automatically detecting and understanding a
wide range of objects in images. Computer vision can be seen as an artificial version of human sight or
photography. There are several steps involved in image recognition. The first step is usually to convert an image
into numbers that computers understand. An image contains hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of colors that
are made up of red, green and blue (RGB) [13]. These colors are turned into data points which form vectors what
researchers call images. A vector has three different values: one for each color channel. To reduce the size of the
resulting vector and represent just a few shades of a particular color instead, methods use either linear classifiers
or non-linear classifiers to create a predictive model that is able to classify new inputs.

Currently, most deep neural networks include residual connections that help propagate local gradients through
many layers of nonlinear hidden units without exploding gradients. The future of deep residual learning is promising
and worthy of further exploration. Deep residual learning is a form of reinforcement learning that builds on the
success of residual networks. Deep residual networks have shown great potential in a variety of settings and have
been used to solve image recognition tasks such as classification and semantic segmentation with high levels of
accuracy.

The author in 2021 [14] concludes that deep residual learning offers significant improvements over traditional
techniques such as VGG and ResNet on image recognition tasks, which they have explored with CNNs and RNNs.
They note that future work should include investigating the effects of changing some parameters in the networks,
exploring how deep residual networks adapt to sequential data, accounting for full system quality metrics, and
furthering exploration into this topic.

In their paper, they detail multiple architectures including a novel global alignment- based network architecture
combined with region proposal generation using two additional channels. They propose a global alignment
approach between those two generators along with more structure to determine whether a given pixel was in
motion or not. They determined that these global constraints made it easier for neural network methods to provide
accurate proposals on image recognition tasks, allowing for higher accuracy and computational savings when
compared against individual models trained without these constraints. The proposed methodology provides a high
level of accuracy while being more computationally efficient than previous approaches. In the proposed
frameworks, researchers present and analyze the main performance metrics for classification and semantic
segmentation. The authors go on to describe their proposed methodologies in-depth, noting that all experimental
datasets were gathered from public sources. Image recognition is a problem within computer vision, which refers to
automatically detecting and understanding a wide range of objects in images.

4. Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition

4.1. Deep Residual Learning Image Steganalysis

Image steganography is a technique that allows for the hiding of data in the image, and this data can be only
visible when the image is modified. Deep residual learning image steganalysis is a technique that enables an
attacker to find out what information has been moved in the image and how it has been moved. Deep residual
learning image steganalysis is a new method to detect steganography. This method is based on deep residual
networks that learn the local patch feature of images. The proposed security system is composed of three stages:
pre-processing, feature extraction and classification.

Why is image steganalysis important? Image steganalysis is important because it can help protect against the
unauthorized use of copyrighted material, help uncover inappropriate content hidden within images, and uncover
potential security threats. What are some challenges in image steganalysis? The three most challenging aspects of
image steganalysis are false positives, obtaining robust features from an image to differentiate between noise and
data, and developing models that learn well from few training examples. There are several approaches to address
these challenges including active learning approaches for extracting good features from an image; however, these
approaches often involve expensive human labor or resources. The false positive rate has been shown to be high
enough that many large-scale search engines don’t even bother scanning for them because they’re not worth the
cost of storage space or computing power required to weed out all those extraneous pictures they come across
while looking for matches. That’s why the creators of TinEye, one such search engine, have suggested that
machine learning researchers take this problem more seriously. The goal was to develop techniques to detect any
personal information added covertly to an image without altering its appearance. For example, consider an image
of someone standing on the beach holding up their child. By examining the pixels in an unaltered version of the
picture, you might notice telltale signs that some numbers had been written over their head using pixelation
techniques. Detecting these kinds of changes isn’t easy to do by hand, so if you want a computer to do it you need
a system capable of detecting very small changes made to individual pixels. Once ADRIAN detects tiny pieces of
data embedded inside a photo, it will then highlight those areas with color differences around them and allow
investigators to zoom in on precisely where there are visible changes. Figure 3 shows the next sections.

Figure 3. Next Five Topics.

4.2. Deep Residual Learning Image Compression

Christian Rathgeb eta al in [15] studied the effect of image compression on the accuracy of deep learning models.
They found that image compression can reduce the size of training datasets by up to 90% without any significant
loss in accuracy. This is because deep learning models are able to learn the relevant features from data more
effectively than shallower models. Image compression can also help speed up training times and reduce the
amount of memory required to store training data. They looked at different ways of compressing images for use as
inputs to convolutional neural networks (CNNs). They noted that arithmetic coding may provide an improvement
over Huffman coding due to its ability to avoid rounding errors. However, it may be challenging for arithmetic
coding-based methods to achieve similar results as Huffman coding-based methods when encoding high resolution
images due to the large number of non-zero coefficients present within such images.

The authors in investigated whether human vision or machine vision algorithms could outperform one another
when identifying objects in natural images. They performed their experiment using their own dataset of animal
photographs they had manually annotated. They used LBP Features and COSINE scale space representations in
order to compute similarities between pairs of images. Their experiments revealed that humans perform better than
machine vision algorithms in tasks involving object recognition, localization, segmentation, etc., while machine
vision performs better than humans in tasks involving detection and pose estimation. Machine vision algorithms are
also less computationally expensive.

The authors in [16] studied how semantic segmentation can be employed to aid applications in various industries
including medicine, self-driving cars, and surveillance. They concluded that computer vision models trained via
unsupervised learning are capable of producing more accurate results than models trained via supervised learning.
Moreover, it was discovered that training methods based on either small or large minibatches performed better
than methods based on medium sized minibatches. Finally, it was found that unsupervised training techniques
performed better than supervised ones when utilizing noisy labels for data labeling purposes.

This entry confirms that machine vision models based on unsupervised learning can perform just as well as those
based on supervised learning, but have the added benefit of being quicker to train.

4.3. Deep Residual Learning Image Restoration

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 9/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

Image restoration [17] is the problem of removing a uniform blur from an image. It is well-known that information-
theoretic approaches to this problem, based on the concept of a log-likelihood ratio operator, can be modelled well
by deep neural networks (DNNs). Recent work has shown that DNNs trained on maximising generalisation
performance can also be used to solve this task with remarkable effectiveness. This entry describes an extension
of such an architecture; researchers call it Deep Residual Learning (DRL). DRL uses Riemannian geometry to
minimise the cost function and achieve an optimal sparse approximation of the true posterior density.

The author in [18] studied the use of deep residual learning for image recognition. They found that it can effectively
remove noise and improve the performance of image restoration models. In addition, they showed that deep
residual learning can be used to improve the accuracy of image classification models. The authors also
demonstrated that deep residual learning can be used to improve the performance of object detection models.
Finally, they showed that deep residual learning can be used to improve the accuracy of scene recognition models.

Similarly, the author in [19] showed that deep residual learning can be used to improve the accuracy of image
retrieval models. Similarly, the author in [20] showed that deep residual learning can be used to improve the
accuracy of video captioning models. The author in pointed out that deep residual learning presents an excellent
alternative to traditional deep neural networks. Using deep-residual-learning may lead to improvements on
accuracy or speed of inference at run time without compromising other objectives such as throughput or energy
efficiency [21][22]. Similarly, they suggested that this method could be combined with variational methods to handle
data sparsity and label noise. Similarly, deep residual learning presents an excellent alternative to traditional deep
neural networks. Similarly, they also noted that using deep-residual-learning may lead to improvements in accuracy
or speed of inference at run time without compromising other objectives such as throughput or energy efficiency.

4.4. Deep Residual Learning Sensing Ct Reconstruction

Deep Residual Discriminator (Deep Residual Learning Sensing Ct Reconstruction) [23][24] is a deep learning model
for helping radiologists classify and identify detections, which are placed in the CT image [25]. The goal of Deep
Residual Discriminator is to improve radiologists’ workflow by reducing the time it takes to scan and produce
reports, while also improving detection efficacy.

The author in [26] studied the problem of image recognition using deep residual learning. They proposed a method
that can be used to achieve high accuracy in image recognition tasks. The proposed method is based on the idea
of using deep residual learning to improve the accuracy of image recognition models. The authors showed that
their method can achieve better accuracy than the state-of-the-art methods on the ImageNet dataset. They also
analyzed and evaluated various modifications to the deep residual network, and showed that it outperforms other
approaches like dropout and batch normalization. The authors noted that there are some limitations to the study.
Another limitation is that they only considered convolutional neural networks, which means that their conclusions
may not extend to generative adversarial networks or recurrent neural networks. Nevertheless, their results
indicate the promise of deep residual learning as an effective way to improve classification accuracy. For example,
when comparing the traditional ReLU layer to ReLU + depthwise separable convolution layer for depth 16, the

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 10/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

accuracy improved [27]. When comparing a combination of all three layers (ReLU + depthwise separable
convolution + kernel activation) versus ReLU alone at depths 16 and 32, then the combined layer performed
significantly better. The results show that including deep residual layers within a neural network has significant
benefits on performance. However, the use of many layers slows down computation speed. Future research should
explore ways to train large deep networks faster while still achieving good accuracy.

In conclusion, deep residual learning was shown to provide promising improvement over standard architectures for
image recognition. However, additional research needs to be done before researchers can make firm conclusions
about how much improvement it offers and why this approach might work better than others currently available. A
major limitation of this research is that only one type of neural network architecture was investigated, meaning that
generalizations to other architectures need to be made cautiously. Also, little data were given regarding potential
drawbacks to using deep residual learning for training deep networks such as increases in computational
complexity or difficulty scaling up for very large networks. Finally, it would have been helpful if the researchers had
examined whether specific optimization techniques were applied better with deep residual learning or without it;
unfortunately, no such comparison was made here.

4.5. Deep Residual Learning Hyperparameter Optimization

Deep Residual Learning Hyperparameter Optimization [28] is a method for optimizing the hyperparameters of a
Deep Residual Learning model. When optimizing the parameters of a deep residual network for image recognition,
there are many factors to consider. The first is the depth of the network. Deeper networks have more layers and
can therefore learn more complex features. Shallower networks, on the other hand, are faster to train and may be
more efficient in terms of memory usage. Another important parameter is the width of the network, which refers to
the number of neurons in each layer. Wider networks can learn more complex features, but are also more
expensive to train. Finally, the learning rate is an important parameter that controls how quickly the network learns
from data. A higher learning rate means that the network learns faster, but may also be more likely to overfit on the
training data. If researchers use a standard gradient descent algorithm to optimize the parameters of a neural
network such as this one, it is not guaranteed that researchers will find good local minima. It would be better if
researchers had some way of knowing what global minima might look like before starting optimization so that
researchers could search intelligently instead of randomly guessing where they might be.

Recent work has attempted to do this by using linear classifiers such as SVM’s or k-nearest neighbors to label
different regions in feature space based on whether they corresponded with positive or negative examples
respectively. Then, these labeled regions were used as starting points for gradient descent optimization, providing
researchers with potential solutions near these regions instead of random ones. While this technique provides
researchers with valuable insight into where to start optimization, it still suffers from problems because these labels
aren’t perfect. For example, the labels are only correct 50% of the time, meaning that researchers' search process
is less accurate than researchers would hope. More research is needed to improve upon this technique and make
sure that it gives reliable results every time. However, despite its imperfections, this approach does provide new
insights into the problem of hyperparameter optimization for deep networks and may help lead to improved

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 11/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

methods in the future. One of the main problems for optimization algorithms is that the gradients become too small
when you go down into lower layers. Therefore, all traditional optimizers try to converge at a single minimum when
in reality there are multiple local minima. One solution proposed was using non-convex strategies like Bayesian
Optimization (BO) and genetic algorithms (GA). In BO you estimate gradients at many different points
simultaneously, while GA does not rely on gradient information at all. Since both techniques show promise, further
research should explore their performance in practice.

There are many factors to consider when optimizing the parameters of a deep residual network for image
recognition. This entry discussed three key considerations: the depth of the network, width of the network, and
learning rate. There is currently much ongoing research exploring novel ways to automate this process; however,
no clear winner has emerged yet. There are many issues that need to be addressed, including gradient size and
convexity. Other approaches include Bayesian optimization and genetic algorithms.

4.6. Very Deep Convolutional Network Image Recognition

In the past few years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have revolutionized image recognition by achieving
unparalleled accuracy on benchmark datasets. A key ingredient in this success has been the use of very deep
CNNs [29][30], which are able to learn rich representations of images.

Recently, the author in [31] proposed a deep recursive residual network (DRRN) to address the problem of image
super-resolution. The proposed DRRN consists of three stages: (1) the downsizing stage, (2) the upsampling
stage, and (3) the reconstruction stage. In the downsizing stage, DRRN uses a convolutional neural network (CNN)
to downscale an input image into a fixed size using a single channel. Then, in the upsampling stage, DRRN applies
an upsampling layer to generate several intermediate images from the downsampled image. Finally, in the
reconstruction stage, DRRN uses two CNNs to reconstruct an output image from these intermediate images.
However, it is hard to find a suitable dataset for super-resolution. In most cases, the input images are different from
each other. Therefore, researchers cannot use the same CNN architecture across different resolutions.
Researchers need to design an architecture that can accommodate different resolutions without overfitting to low-
resolution images (which is hard). You might want to try using a ResNet-like architecture with multiple residual
blocks (ResNet has multiple branches), which may help you achieve good performance. The problem with transfer
learning is that it works well in the sense that it is often able to learn a useful representation from a large amount of
data, but it does not necessarily learn the best representation for the task at hand. For example, if you are trying to
use transfer learning for face recognition and you have trained on a large number of faces, then you might find that
your transfer learned model does not perform as well as one that was trained directly on faces. Similarly, the author
in [32] proposes a new method for matching software-generated sketches with face photographs using a very deep
convolutional neural network (CNN). This method uses two different types of networks: one network is trained on
face photographs and another network is trained on sketches. The two networks are combined into one network by
using transfer learning. Their experiments show that their method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in
terms of accuracy and generalization capability.

 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

Shun Moriya and Chihiro Shibata [33] propose a novel transfer learning method for very deep CNNs for text
classification. Researchers' main contribution is a new evaluation method that compares the proposed transfer
learning method with two existing methods, namely fine-tuning and feature handover. They also propose a new
model ensemble approach to improve the performance of researchers' models by using the best performing model
from each ensemble member as an additional feature. Researchers' experiments on five public datasets show that
researchers' approach outperforms previous methods and gives competitive results when compared with other
state-of-the-art methods.

Similarly, Afzal et al. in [34] present the first investigation of how very deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)
can be used to improve document image classification. They also study how advanced training strategies such as
multi-network training and model compression techniques can be combined with very deep CNNs to further
improve performance. Their results show that very deep CNNs are able to outperform shallow networks, even
when using a relatively small amount of training data. They also find that multi-network training significantly
improves performance over single-network training, especially for very deep CNNs. Finally, they demonstrate that
model compression techniques such as quantization and binarization can be combined with very deep CNNs to
achieve an additional 5% reduction in error rate with only a small loss in accuracy. However, they should highlight
that their model achieves state-of-the-art performance in document image classification. However, they don’t
provide any quantitative results to support this claim. They could easily add some performance metrics (e.g., F1
score) on top of their results, and this would make the paper more convincing. The next five sections are shown
in Figure 4.

4.7. Deep Residual Networks Accelerator on FPGA

A recent survey by ImageNet found that deep residual networks (ResNets) have become the state-of-the-art in
image recognition [35]. However, training and deploying these models can be prohibitively expensive. FPGAs [36]

offer a high degree of parallelism and energy efficiency, making them an attractive platform for accelerating deep
neural networks. In this entry, researchers will survey the literature on FPGA-based acceleration of deep residual

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 13/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

networks. Researchers will discuss the challenges involved in training and deploying these models on FPGAs, and
researchers will survey the current state-of-the-art in FPGA-based deep learning accelerators. Worthy of note are
the paper from Hui Liao et al., which presents a systematic comparison between CPU-based and GPU-based
training of ResNets.

4.8. Resnet Models Image Recognition

In 2015, a new deep learning model known as a deep residual network (ResNet) was introduced by researchers at
Microsoft [1]. This model has quickly become the state-of-the-art for image recognition tasks. These networks are
now part of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) [37]. They have been used to achieve world records in object
classification and detection in many large-scale competitions such as ImageNet, ILSVRC, COCO and PASCAL
VOC. Furthermore, they also achieved competitive results on various 3D shape estimation problems. These
models are computationally expensive because they require billions of parameters and need hundreds of millions
of training images. Consequently, this has led to some speculation that they will never be used outside academia
or research laboratories due to their high computation cost; however, recent developments like adopting modern
graphics processing units (GPUs) may bring down these costs significantly in the near future. The first significant
attempt to train such models using GPUs came from NVIDIA’s [38] deep learning framework CUDA [39] back in
2014. However, Nvidia soon found out that there were limitations of scaling the GPU implementations to larger
Resnet architectures [34][40], and it was difficult to provide a stable environment for training. The researchers then
turned towards software written specifically for use on GPUs which could take advantage of newer hardware
capabilities. It is anticipated that these new frameworks will offer significant improvements over their predecessors
because they provide an interface between multi-core CPUs and GPUs while also offering data preprocessing
functions which are necessary when working with large datasets. One such framework is called Intel Integrated
Performance Primitives Library (Intel IPP), which offers a variety of different functions including matrix
multiplication, convolutions, etc. Thus far it has shown good performance on small and medium sized datasets but
not so much on larger ones. Furthermore, another promising library that can also take advantage of Intel
processors’ Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) technology [41] is Eigen and its variants like HKLMSVD or
GEMM. This library contains algorithms designed for Numerical Linear Algebra that would work well with ResNets.
These implementations have shown excellent performance on both ImageNet and Cityscapes benchmarks, yet
they still remain challenging to parallelize without sacrificing too much accuracy.

The time spent training image recognition models has fallen dramatically since 2010, owing to increasing
computational power and the availability of massive labeled datasets. In 2016, Google trained a model within six
days using 8 TPUs (Tensor Processing Units). Another breakthrough was achieved by Baidu’s Sunway TaihuLight
[42] computer, which is based on China’s national design blueprint created in 2013 [43]. The three grand challenges
in fundamental science are high performance computing, brain science, and quantum computing.

4.9. Shrinkage Network Image Recognition

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 14/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

Shrinkage Network Image Recognition [44][45] is an important tool for image recognition. This method uses a deep
residual learning framework to achieve state-of-the-art performance on various image recognition tasks. The
authors mention that the networks are composed of three key components, namely depthwise convolution, max
pooling and subsampling layers.

In particular, the depthwise convolution [46] performs feature extraction by mapping input images onto filter
responses at different depths. Max pooling captures spatial information by aggregating features over a fixed
window size across the input channels in both spatial dimensions and selecting top k features from each window.
Finally, subsampling layers are responsible for reducing network size while maintaining its accuracy via training the
network on reduced resolution images (or upsampled or downsampled images). They mention that using this
architecture can reduce training time from hours to minutes per epoch without affecting accuracy significantly (or
even improving it). Furthermore, they mention that there have been some recent improvements with regard to
previous versions such as the use of LSTM units instead of RNNs [47][48], which can improve robustness against
adversarial attacks. One other interesting point mentioned was how the researchers used RGBD data to better
understand how humans perceive color and objects. They found that humans tend to see colors mostly in the mid-
spectrum where red, green and blue meet, so they created special networks that mimic human perception of color
when training them. Another discovery is that researchers find objects more easily if they are located near edges
rather than in cluttered areas. To take advantage of this finding, their model predicts two probabilities, one
corresponding to the probability of detecting an object in the cluttered region and another corresponding to the
probability of detecting an object at the edge regions. The final model achieved good results on classification tasks
like labeling dogs versus cats and types of food (bananas vs. apples).

On small datasets like CIFAR-10 [49], a new approach called Instance Normalization achieves competitive results,
but when applied to larger datasets like ImageNet large gains were obtained.

4.10. Tomography Images Deep Learning and Transfer

Hao et al. in [50] studied the application of deep learning to tomography images and found that the proposed
method can effectively improve the recognition performance. Similarly, deep residual learning has also been
applied to image recognition tasks with promising results. In this entry, researchers review the recent progress
made in deep residual learning for image recognition. Researchers first introduce the general framework of deep
residual learning and then discuss its application to various image recognition tasks. Finally, researchers
summarize the challenges and future directions of deep residual learning for image recognition. In summary, deep
residual learning has shown a promising application to image recognition tasks with relatively strong results.

Deep residual networks are composed of two parts: (1) dense layers and (2) downsampling layers [51], which aim
at restoring lost details by averaging information from neighboring locations or different depths in the same layer.
Densely connected layers form an intermediate representation which is stored for later use. Downsampling layers
help produce more concise representations which are easier to train. There have been multiple successes applying
deep residual networks in image recognition, as shown below. One example is image segmentation. A pre-trained

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 15/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

deep residual network was used to build a boundary map which was applied onto input data. The boundary map
allows for the accurate labeling of different objects in the scene while preserving intricate features like edges and
contours.

Similarly, another study used unsupervised pretraining [52][53] followed by supervised fine-tuning to classify six
vehicle classes (categories). The classification accuracy obtained using the resulting deep network is close to 99%.
It should be noted that these experiments have not yet gone beyond 10 training epochs, showing there may be
room for improvement. Despite this, deep residual learning has already demonstrated its promise in providing
increased accuracy over previous methods. For example, recent research shows that a combined approach of fully
convolutional neural networks and 3D convolutional networks significantly outperforms both other approaches
when classifying knee joint status from MRI scans. Similarly, it was recently shown that adding depth information
leads to improved classification accuracies for facial expression detection, with smile detection achieving 96%
accuracy and sulk detection achieving 88% accuracy when compared to 68% and 52% respectively without depth
information. Moreover, even higher accuracies were obtained using regularized discriminative models such as
ensemble perceptrons or boosting discriminative neural networks. Similarly, combining variational autoencoders
with a generative adversarial network resulted in significant improvements for reconstructing speech from laryngeal
articulations. Lastly, it should be noted that the field of computer vision has benefited greatly from the development
of deep learning algorithms. Indeed, deep residual networks are one of many novel techniques that have been
developed and tested over the past few years. Future studies will need to consider how best to leverage all aspects
of their model architecture (such as their number of hidden layers), how much data they require during training,
whether they require supervision or not during training and what kind they require during testing (for instance label
noise). Furthermore, new tasks are needed to test the limitations of deep residual learning. As mentioned earlier,
deep residual networks have been successfully applied to image recognition tasks. However, little work has been
done in applying deep residual networks to natural language processing or object detection tasks. Similarly, further
work is needed in understanding how transferable the learned weights are from task to task and if they require
some sort of reconstruction process after being applied to a new task.

Deep residual learning is a powerful tool for applications requiring high levels of accuracy as well as robustness
against changes in the distribution of inputs during training or testing. Deep residual networks represent a
compelling alternative for dealing with visual recognition problems where datasets are limited or costly to collect.

4.11. Hybrid Deep Learning

Hybrid Deep Learning [54][55] is a proven method used to build the models. It can overcome the limitations of both
traditional deep learning and reinforcement learning. This technique has been applied in complex real-world
problems with impressive results. Hybrid Deep Learning can be used for any kind of signal processing task and it is
going to be more important for new emerging applications such as self-driving vehicles or robotics.

In recent years, hybrid deep learning architectures [56] have been proposed to take advantage of the strengths of
both CNNs and RNNs. The most successful hybrid models are based on a deep residual learning (ResNet)

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 16/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

framework proposed by He et al. [1]. Similarly, Deep Residual Learning was studied in Deep Residual Learning and
[1] explored how ResNets can improve the performance of traditional supervised neural networks when combined
with automatic feature engineering they investigated how ResNets can improve the performance of traditional
supervised neural networks when combined with automatic feature engineering Author in found that they could
learn low level features like contours, edges, corners and blobs just as well if not better than humans. The authors
of [57] also explored practical challenges associated with applying deep resnets to computer vision problems such
as working around computational limitations. In their study they also explored practical challenges associated with
applying deep resnets to computer vision problems such as working around computational limitations. The authors
concluded by discussing future directions, where they will investigate reinforcement learning on top of residual
nets. They noted the promise of combining deep memory networks with other machine learning techniques such as
dropout, autoencoders and generative adversarial networks to produce a powerful new generation of models. The
details of the next chapter are shown in Figure 5.

Figure 5. Next Five Topics.

4.12. Deep Learning Architectures

In recent years, deep learning has made tremendous progress in the field of image recognition. The main
contribution of this entry is a comprehensive survey of deep residual learning (ResNets), which is a state-of-the-art
deep learning architecture for image recognition [58]. The author in [2] studied the effect of different depths of
ResNets on the classification accuracy [59][60]. They found that deeper networks are more accurate than shallower
networks. However, they also found that there is a diminishing return in accuracy as the network depth increases.
Besides deepening ResNets, researchers have also investigated adding residual blocks to shallow models. The
idea behind adding these blocks is to take advantage of the invariance properties of convolutional neural networks
by using small images to compensate for large changes in input size and shape. These blocks help to prevent
overfitting and underfitting problems in models with few parameters and a large number of filters. A very simple
example includes replacing just one or two layers at the end of a shallow model with their corresponding ones from
a deep model. One such extension is called SqueezeNet [61], which replaces only one layer with its corresponding
layer from an entire deep CNN inception module. A further extension comes from Google Brain called

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 17/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

CheckerboardNet [62], which replaces all layers with their counterparts from an entire deep CNN inception module.
Another type of extension comes from Microsoft Research, which consists of a series of hybrid architectures:
Stacked Connected Convolutional Networks, Transformer Networks, and Self-Attention Models. All three
architectures propose combining residual units with feature extraction units. Stacked Connected Convolutional
Networks stack two types of networks on top of each other: (1) a set of regular deep networks where each level
performs feature extraction; and (2) a single dense network containing up to 10 times fewer parameters than the
previous level but still extracting features within each level. Similarly, Transformer Networks stack two types of
models: (1) full-connected recurrent encoder-decoder pairs and (2) transformer blocks that replace groups
connections between nodes while performing feature extraction. Lastly, Self-Attention Models stack two types of
models: (1) Autoregressive Encoder Decoder Models; and (2) self-attention modules that extract features.
Experiments conducted show that the proposed architectures produce better results than those without stacking
residuals with extra modules. There are, however, various drawbacks associated with these architectures. Firstly,
the training process can be time consuming. Secondly, there can be some significant increase in computation
requirements since the same operations need to be performed repeatedly across different network layers. Finally,
most of these proposals use computationally expensive attention mechanisms which increase both memory and
computational requirements. For example, memory usage for Stacked Connected Convolutional Networks goes up
from mm2 to mm3. Self-attention models’ computational cost per batch prediction goes up from O(1) to O(2).
Attention mechanisms can provide robustness against adversarial examples, but it seems that it would be
necessary to combine them with additional regularization techniques.

4.13. Deep Learning System

In recent years, deep learning systems [63] have achieved great success in many fields, including image
recognition. One of the most successful deep learning models is the deep residual network (ResNet), which was
proposed in 2015 [1]. Since then, ResNets have been widely used in various image recognition tasks and have
shown state-of-the-art performance. However, there are still some limitations that need to be addressed: they are
not computationally efficient and they can be easily fooled by adversarial examples. Recently, researchers have
started to explore new methods to improve these shortcomings. Some promising approaches include changing the
activation function from ReLU to ELU or SELU; using a memory module before each layer; using data
augmentation techniques during training; and pre-training with a large dataset followed by fine tuning with a small
dataset. The paper also reviews other methods such as attention-based networks, Generative Adversarial
Networks, Convolutional Neural Networks, GANs, etc. The authors suggest future work to explore the
aforementioned topics and make recommendations on how best to use deep residual networks for specific tasks.
They also propose research directions in developing more powerful architectures based on deep residual
networks, which may solve the problems faced by existing methods. Furthermore, in order to better utilise all the
available resources, it is necessary to create an open-source software library which supports parallel computing.
Additionally, novel datasets should be developed because current datasets only cover a limited number of object
categories. When creating these datasets, researchers should take into account not just the pixel information but
also the metadata. Furthermore, there needs to be a way to analyse data automatically without human involvement

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 18/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

so that it is scalable and accurate. Lastly, future work should focus on studying what type of neural architecture
would suit specific tasks such as semantic segmentation and pose estimation.

The main limitation of deep residual networks is that they are computationally inefficient and can be easily fooled
by adversarial examples. There have been attempts to address these issues such as using a memory module
before each layer, using data augmentation techniques during training, and pre-training with a large dataset
followed by fine tuning with a small dataset. As for the future of deep residual networks for image recognition, it is
hard to predict where they will go next. There have been studies on trying to combine deep residual networks with
generative adversarial networks which yield encouraging results and hope for further developments in this area. A
concern with these networks is that they are mainly trained on supervised tasks and it is not yet clear if they can be
trained for reinforcement learning. Research should also look at the connections between deep residual networks
and recurrent networks with long short-term memory units, for instance, in constructing deeper layers. Regarding
the issue of efficiency, there have been significant advances such as combining ResNets with multi-level attention
networks to increase the computational efficiency. The result is a huge reduction in required parameters and thus
computation time. It remains to be seen how well these networks perform in comparison to standard models.

4.14. Deep Residual Learning Persistent Homology Analysis

Despite its great success, deep learning has been criticized [64] for being a black box. In this entry, researchers
take a step towards understanding the inner workings of deep neural networks by performing a persistent
homology analysis of the feature representations learned by a state-of-the-art deep residual network. These
findings provide new insights into how convolutional and fully connected layers learn to extract increasingly
abstract features from raw input data. They also have important implications for training deep networks because
they suggest that in order to maximize performance, researchers should train them so as to push them deeper.
Moreover, researchers' analysis gives rise to three new models for fast-forwarding through a sequence of images
at different depths: (1) forward prediction: computing a feature representation at one depth predicting the next
depth; (2) backward propagation: computing the representation at one depth propagating backwards up through
previous layers; and (3) hybrid forward/backward propagation: running both forward and backward propagation
steps simultaneously but treating each layer independently. Researchers' experimental results demonstrate that
these models can significantly outperform traditional backpropagation when applied to videos, suggesting that
future work may focus on developing efficient methods for training video processing tasks such as image
segmentation and caption generation. The final result in this entry will be a continuation of the discussion found in
Paper 2: A comprehensive survey on deep residual learning for image recognition concludes with two models for
fast-forwarding through a sequence of images at different depths:

- Forward Prediction: computing a feature representation at one depth and predicting the next depth

- Backward Propagation: computing the representation at one depth propagating backwards up through previous
layers.

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 19/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

- Hybrid Forward/Backward Propagation: Running both forward and backward propagation steps simultaneously
but treating each layer independently.

In conclusion, despite all of the progress made thus far, there are still many challenges ahead for deep networks to
overcome before they become commonplace in society. Researchers expect that there will be continued innovation
and improvements over time leading to better computers, better algorithms, and ultimately better models for
improving human life.

Researchers' hope is that these survey papers provide an overview from which future researchers can gain insight
into approaches to tackling issues in computer vision and other areas of machine learning. Furthermore,
researchers' goal is not simply to describe new concepts but also to hopefully inspire a new generation of
researchers who wish to continue on with their own research endeavors. For those who wish to continue reading
about Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition, One of the author’s main goals was to increase
understanding of the inner workings of deep neural networks, and I think that the author did a good job in making
that happen. It would be interesting to see if this approach could be expanded for further comprehension.

4.15. Deep Residual Learning Pest Identification

Deep residual learning is a neural network that is used to learn image representations. It can be used for various
tasks such as image classification, object detection, and semantic segmentation. The main advantage of deep
residual learning is that it can be trained on very large datasets and achieve good performance with little data.
Similarly, Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition authors studied the effects of applying deep residual
learning on pest identification [65]. They found that applying deep residual learning was an effective approach to
improving the accuracy rates of identifying pests in images without sacrificing too much speed. Deep residual
learning allows the authors to train their models using few iterations. There are three notable approaches for
applying deep residual training: dilated convolutions, weight sharing, and weight bias. Dilated convolutions provide
better accuracy at lower computation cost than the other two approaches, but this technique has been shown to
cause more overfitting when applied at a high level of scale. Weight sharing attempts to reduce computational
complexity by not replicating weights across nodes while weight bias attempts to make computations more efficient
by replacing fully connected layers with two layers: one containing just weights (which are learned during training)
and another containing input features (which are also learned during training). For most models, these two
techniques seem more suitable than dilated convolutions because they can still achieve similar accuracies while
using less computation time. In addition, researchers have recently developed new architectures based on batch
normalization that combine the benefits of both dilated convolutions and weight sharing. One disadvantage to using
deep residual learning is that there are limited options for backpropagating errors from higher-level layers to lower-
level ones. Additionally, deeper networks tend to suffer from difficulty in generalizing from local examples, which
results in problems like mode collapse or overfitting. One way around this problem is to use batch normalization.
Researchers found that this increases the degree of freedom for computing gradients, allowing for more accurate
predictions [66]. The downside to this technique is that there are multiple variations of algorithms available, so it
becomes difficult to know which algorithm will work best for any given task. A survey about deep residual learning

https://encyclopedia.pub/entry/27415 20/26
 Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition | Encyclopedia.pub

showed that there were challenges in trying to implement the technique when real-time inference was required,
because certain parts of standard CPUs could not process the large number of multiplications quickly enough.
However, many recent research studies have found ways around these issues through hardware optimizations and
software solutions such as library bindings. Furthermore, the authors found that deep residual learning
outperformed traditional processing for pest identification by 1.4%. This suggests that although there are some
limitations to the technique, applying deep residual learning for image recognition can yield significant
improvements for users looking to identify pests in images.

Deep residual learning can be implemented for image recognition in multiple different ways. Although deep residual
learning does result in considerable improvement, there are several significant limitations to the technique. Deep
residual learning works best when there is high resolution, large amounts of labeled datasets, and modern
hardware that is optimized for implementing deep learning. Finally, it may take a while to optimize the dataset
depending on how new the technology is. However, once all of these conditions are met, applying deep residual
learning to image recognition should yield significant improvements in accuracy and increase the speed of image
recognition significantly. Nevertheless, more testing is needed in order to gain a clearer picture on whether or not
deep residual learning is suited for all applications that require analyzing and classifying images. Further research
should be done to determine if applying deep residual learning to other application domains yields similar benefits
as seen with image recognition.
