Abstract:

Systems and methods are provided relating to artificial neural networks are provided. The systems and methods obtain a teacher network that includes artificial neural layers configured to automatically identify one or more objects in an image examined by the artificial neural layers, receive a set of task images at the teacher network, examine the set of task images with the teacher network, identify a subset of the artificial neural layers that are utilized during examination of the set of task images with the teacher network, and define a student network based on the set of task images. The student network is configured to automatically identify one or more objects in an image examined by the subset.
