Source Paper: [ICCV'2017] https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.06868 Authors: Xun Huang, Serge Belongie Code: https://github.com/xunhuang1995/AdaIN-style Contributions In this paper, the authors present a simple yet effective approach that for the first time enables arbitrary style transfer in real-time. Arbitrary style transfer: takes a content image $C$ and an arbitrary style image $S$ as inputs, and synthesizes an output image with the same content as $C$ and the same syle as $S$. Background Batch Normalization Given a input batch $x \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times C \times H \times W}$, batch normalization (BN) normalizes the mean and standard deviation for each individual feature channel: $$ \mathrm{BN}(x)=\gamma\left(\frac{x-\mu(x)}{\sigma(x)}\right)+\beta $$ where $\gamma , \beta \in \mathbb{R}^{C}$ are affine parameters learned from data. $\mu(x) , \sigma(x) \in \mathbb{R}^{C}$ are mean and standard deviation computed across batch size and spatial dimensions, independently. $$ \mu_{c}(x)=\frac{1}{N H W} \sum_{n=1}^{N} \sum_{h=1}^{H} \sum_{w=1}^{W} x_{n c h w} $$ $$ \sigma_{c}(x)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{N H W} \sum_{n=1}^{N} \sum_{h=1}^{H} \sum_{w=1}^{W}\left(x_{n c h w}-\mu_{c}(x)\right)^{2}+\epsilon} $$ Instance Normalization Original feed-forward stylization method [51] utilizes BN layers after the convolutional layer.

It proposes to restrict the students to learn linear embedding of the teacher's outputs, which boosts its learning.

Scaled-YOLOv4: Scaling Cross Stage Partial Network In this reading notes: We have reviewed some basic model scaling method: width, depth, resolution, compound scaling. We have computed the operation amount of residual blocks, and showed the relation with input image size (square), number of layers (linear), number of filters (square). We have presented the proposed Cross-Stage Partial (CSP) method that decreases the operations and improves the performance of basic CNN layers.

Abstract The paper introduces a position attention module and a channel attention module to capture global dependencies in the spatial and channel dimensions respectively. The proposed DANet adaptively integrates local semantic features using the self-attention mechanism. 摘要 本文引入了位置关注模块和通道关注模块，分别在空间和通道维度上捕捉全局依赖性。 所提出的DANet利用自注意力机制自适应地集成局部语义特征。 Outline Brief Review: attention mechanism, SE net DANet: Dual Attention Network Experiments: visualization and comparison Conclusion 大纲 回顾：注意机制、SENet DANet： 双重关注网络 实验：可视化和对比 结论 Download: https://connectpolyu-my.sharepoint.com/:p:/g/personal/18048204r_connect_polyu_hk/EbgphNjvYP5Psw5gdgDjInQBs761z4x8FYboKXF2arT6kw?e=haTOHI This is an embedded Microsoft Office presentation, powered by Office.

Objectives Deep learning is a recently hot machine learning method. The deep learning architectures are formed by the composition of several nonlinear transformations with the goal to yield more abstract and extract useful representations/features. (i) Start with a revision of the basic principle of Neural Networks, neutron structure, examples of back-propagation, learning procedure and iterations (preferably with experimental results), and then (ii) discuss at least one type of deep learning architecture, with a way or ways to illustrate its working principle.  (iii) You can also give a summary of different deep learning architectures, and highlight their uses and significances with a good explanation if possible. (iv) you can also illustrate the whole procedure for its use for object recognition/classification.
