Keyword [DRN]

Yu F, Koltun V, Funkhouser T. Dilated residual networks[C]//Proceedings of the IEEE conference on computer vision and pattern recognition. 2017: 472-480.



1. Overview


1.1. Motivation

  • progressively reduce resolution is harmful for segmentation, even classification

In this paper, it proposed DRN (Dilated Residual Network)

  • increase the resolution of output feature maps without reducing the receptive filed of individual neurons
  • removing gridding artifacts introduce by dilation



2. Dilated Residual Networks


  • remove the stride-2 in layer-4 and layer-5
  • set dilation = 2 of block_i in layer-4, i≥2


  • set dilation = 2 of block_1 in layer-5



  • set dilation = 4 of block_i in layer-5, i≥2






3. Degridding




  • removing max pooling
  • adding layers
  • removing residual connections






4. Experiments
