CONDENSE-EXPANSION-DEPTH-WISE CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK FOR FACE RECOGNITION

Abstract:

Techniques related to implementing convolutional neural networks for face or other object recognition are discussed. Such techniques may include applying, in turn, a depth-wise separable convolution, a condense point-wise convolution, and an expansion point-wise convolution to input feature maps to generate output feature maps such that the output from the expansion point-wise convolution has more channels than the output from the condense point-wise convolution.
