We present a biologically motivated method for scene image classification. The core of the method is to use shape based image property that is provided by a hierarchical feedforward model of the visual cortex [18]. Edge ...

Recently, deep learning techniques have been used significantly for large scale image classification targeting wildlife prediction. This research adopted a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) and proposed a deep scalable ...

To learn a new visual category from few examples, prior knowledge from unlabeled data as well as previous related categories may be useful.  We develop a new method for transfer learning which exploits available unlabeled ...
