Hands-On Java Deep Learning for Computer Vision

Convolutional Neural Network Architectures

In this chapter, we'll explore edge detection as one of the most fundamental and widely-used techniques in computer vision. Then, we'll look at edge detection in action, using a number of features and images, by building a Java application that detects edges on different images. As a next step, we'll detail how to use edge detection or convolution with colored RGB images so that we can capture even more features from images. We'll present them using several parameters, which will enable us to control the output of the convolution operation. Then, we'll look at a slightly different type of filter, the pooling layers, and one of the most frequently used: the max pooling layer. After that, we'll put ...
