Learning Iterative Binarization using Hierarchical Recurrent Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper the binarization of matrix codes is investigated as an application of supervised learning of image processing tasks using a recurrent version of the Neural Abstraction Pyramid. The desired network output is computed using an adaptive thresholding method for undegraded images. The network is trained to iteratively produce the same output even when the contrast is lowered and typical noise is added to the input. The network discovers the structure of the codes and uses it for binarization. This makes the recognition of degraded matrix codes possible for which adaptive thresholding fails.

Recurrent Ladder Networks
We propose a recurrent extension of the Ladder networks [22] whose structure is motivated by the inference required in hierarchical latent variable models. We demonstrate that the recurrent Ladder is able to handle a wide variety of complex learning tasks that benefit from iterative inference and temporal modeling. The architecture shows close-to-optimal results on temporal modeling of video da...
متن کاملLearning Iterative Image Reconstruction
Successful image reconstruction requires the recognition of a scene and the generation of a clean image of that scene. We propose to use recurrent neural networks for both analysis and synthesis. The networks have a hierarchical architecture that represents images in multiple scales with different degrees of abstraction. The mapping between these representations is mediated by a local connectio...

Thinking about the “Symbol Grounding Problem” and the brain structure of living things, the author believes that it is the best solution for generating communication in robot-like systems to use a neural network that is trained based on reinforcement learning. As the first step of the research of symbol emergence using neural network, it was examined that parallel analog communication signals a...
متن کاملA real-time learning control approach for nonlinear continuous-time system using recurrent neural networks
In this paper, a real-time iterative learning control (ILC) approach for a nonlinear continuous-time system using recurrent neural networks (RNN’s) with time-varying weights is presented. Two RNN’s are utilized in the ILC system. One is used to approximate the nonlinear system and another is used to mimic the desired system response. The ILC rule is obtained by combining the two RNN’s to form a...
متن کاملHierarchical Multiscale Recurrent Neural Networks
Learning both hierarchical and temporal representation has been among the longstanding challenges of recurrent neural networks. Multiscale recurrent neural networks have been considered as a promising approach to resolve this issue, yet there has been a lack of empirical evidence showing that this type of models can actually capture the temporal dependencies by discovering the latent hierarchic...
