A Comparison of Deep Learning Classification Methods on Small-scale Image Data set: from Convolutional Neural Networks to Visual Transformers
In recent years, deep learning has made brilliant achievements in image classification. However, image classification of small datasets is still not obtained good research results. This article first briefly explains the application and characteristics of convolutional neural networks and visual transformers. Meanwhile, the influence of small data set on classification and the solution are introduced. Then a series of experiments are carried out on the small datasets by using various models, and the problems of some models in the experiments are discussed. Through the comparison of experimental results, the recommended deep learning model is given according to the model application environment. Finally, we give directions for future work.
