Generative Adversarial Networks, or GANs, are deep learning architecture generative models that have seen wide success. There are thousands of papers on GANs and many hundreds of named-GANs, that is, models with a defined name that often includes “GAN“, such as DCGAN, as opposed to a minor extension to the method. Given the vast size […]
Generative Adversarial Networks, or GANs, are an architecture for training generative models, such as deep convolutional neural networks for generating images. Although GAN models are capable of generating new random plausible examples for a given dataset, there is no way to control the types of images that are generated other than trying to figure out […]
Develop a Deep Learning Model to Automatically Describe Photographs in Python with Keras, Step-by-Step. Caption generation is a challenging artificial intelligence problem where a textual description must be generated for a given photograph. It requires both methods from computer vision to understand the content of the image and a language model from the field of […]
Generative Adversarial Networks, or GANs for short, are an approach to generative modeling using deep learning methods, such as convolutional neural networks. Generative modeling is an unsupervised learning task in machine learning that involves automatically discovering and learning the regularities or patterns in input data in such a way that the model can be used […]
A Generative Adversarial Network, or GAN, is a type of neural network architecture for generative modeling. Generative modeling involves using a model to generate new examples that plausibly come from an existing distribution of samples, such as generating new photographs that are similar but specifically different from a dataset of existing photographs. A GAN is […]
Generative Adversarial Networks, or GANs, are a type of deep learning technique for generative modeling. GANs are the techniques behind the startlingly photorealistic generation of human faces, as well as impressive image translation tasks such as photo colorization, face de-aging, super-resolution, and more. It can be very challenging to get started with GANs. This is […]
Object detection is a task in computer vision that involves identifying the presence, location, and type of one or more objects in a given photograph. It is a challenging problem that involves building upon methods for object recognition (e.g. where are they), object localization (e.g. what are their extent), and object classification (e.g. what are […]
It is challenging to know how to best prepare image data when training a convolutional neural network. This involves both scaling the pixel values and use of image data augmentation techniques during both the training and evaluation of the model. Instead of testing a wide range of options, a useful shortcut is to consider the […]
Convolutional layers in a convolutional neural network summarize the presence of features in an input image. A problem with the output feature maps is that they are sensitive to the location of the features in the input. One approach to address this sensitivity is to down sample the feature maps. This has the effect of […]
Convolutional layers are the major building blocks used in convolutional neural networks. A convolution is the simple application of a filter to an input that results in an activation. Repeated application of the same filter to an input results in a map of activations called a feature map, indicating the locations and strength of a […]
