Auto-TLDR; Convolutional Neural Network with Convex Hull Based Classifier
In this paper, we propose a new image classifier based on the incorporation of the nearest neighbor algorithm and the activation space of convolutional neural network. The classifier has been successfully used on some state-of-the-art models and further improve their performance. Main technique tools we used are convex hull based classification and its acceleration. We find that 1) in several cases, the classifier can reach higher accuracy than original CNN; 2) by sampling, the classifier can work more efficiently; 3) centroid of each convex hull shows surprising ability in classification. Most of the work has strong geometry meanings, which helps us have a new understanding about convolutional layers.
