英文摘要

      An increasing interest in computer vision and machine learning has focused on visual categorization as it is a fundamental task for image retrieval, organization and robotic vision. Over the past decade, various deep learningbased models have been proposed and broadly applied to visual recognition and categorization. In this paper, the proposed approach learns features from scratch rather than employ hand-crafted (SIFT) and (HOG) descriptors. Deep hierarchical architecture for learning effective image representations can be built up layer by layer. Specifically, K--SVD and OMP are used for training and encoding phase respectively due to their simplicity and efficiency. In addition, sum, average and max operators are three commonly strategies for pooling in modern categorization models. We aim to apply an improved scheme which learns the receptive fields for pooling together with classifier instead of traditional pooling pattern. We provide a detailed analysis in deep networks for event and object tasks respectively and compare our novel method with several stateof- the-art algorithms comprising kernel-based feature learning and saliency-weighted hierarchical sparse coding. Finally, experimental results show that our algorithm performs better on UIUC--sports and Oxford flowers datasets.
