Review of Image Classification Algorithms Based on Convolutional Neural Networks

🤖 Plain-English Summary

Image classification has always been a hot research direction in the world, and the emergence of deep learning has promoted the development of this field. Along the way, we analyze (1) the basic structure of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and the basic network layers of CNNs, (2) the classic predecessor network models, (3) the recent SOAT network algorithms, (4) comprehensive comparison of various image classification methods mentioned in this article.

🔑 Key Findings

• Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have gradually become the mainstream algorithm for image classification since 2012, and the CNN architecture applied to other visual recognition tasks (such as object detection, object localization, and semantic segmentation) is generally derived from the network architecture in image classification.
• In the wake of these successes, CNN-based methods have emerged in remote sensing image scene classification and achieved advanced classification accuracy.
• In this review, which focuses on the application of CNNs to image classification tasks, we cover their development, from their predecessors up to recent advanced (SOAT) network architectures.
